access_asp thread: Counting records in ASP


Message #1 by "Andrew Matheson" <amatheso@y...> on Tue, 5 Feb 2002 15:02:02
Hello all,  



I am currently setting up a student tutorial database in a unuversity 

college.  Every thing is progressing really well, except i am stuck with a 

counting issue.



Every tutorial is taken by a teacher, and i need to work out a way to 

calculate payment for this.  Every time the attendance check is taken, The 

students are ticked of in the database, using checkboxes (ie attendance is 

True or False).  In the Tute_Attend Table, each student has a row with 

columns for: Week_1, Week_2, week_3, Week_4, Week 5, and Month and Year.





The following shows a Tute Attendance.



ID_Key |Tute_ID |Week1... etc|Year |Month |TutorID |Student_ID

------------------------------------------------------------------------

   1       35     [T]         2002   Feb      94     983248

   2       67     [F]         2002   Feb      95     983456

   3       35     [T]         2002   Feb      94     987456

   4       67     [T]         2002   Feb      95     983478

------------------------------------------------------------------------



How do i produce a query which will tell me how many students went to each 

tute in each week.



I have tried in asp, which is a little messy.  However if you know of a 

way in Access or asp to do this....PLEASE HELP.



Kind Regards,



Andrew

Not entirely sure how your table structure works, but something like:



SELECT

    Week,

    Count(Week) AS Count

FROM

    TableNameHere

GROUP BY

    Week



I don't know whether you want to group by tuteID, then Week, or just by Week

(it's not clear from your question), but these go into the GROUP BY clause.

Your records are grouped, then the number of records in each group is

counted.



Cheers

Ken
