Count Fields Over Multiple Rows
I have a database like this
id, field1,field2,field3,field4,field5
Database contains 100 rows, some rows have no fields filled, some
1field , some 2 fields etc.
How would i count the number of fields filled in total?
So the outcome is (number of fields filled in row1)+(number of fields
filled in row2)+(number of fields filled in
row3)....................+(number of fields filled in row100)

Count Of Multiple Fields
I have a database that stores some stats for a hockey league in the following manner: Field names are GP, G, A Whenever a player Plays a game, his ID is added to the column GP while other columns go to 0 If a player scores a goal, his ID goes under G, the guy who assisted goes under A What I want is a query that can give me the count for each ID that shows up in GP for GP, G and A Is there an easy way to do this with just one statement? Right now, it's really messy since I have to loop through each player ID in GP and make individual queries to count GP, G and A because I can't figure out an easier way and I don't want to rebuild the DB
Count Multiple Rows
I have a table that tracks dealer transactions. The fields are Date, Dealership, Amount, A, D, W, F. A=Approved D=Denied, W=Withdrawn and F=Funded. I have made it where if a loan has been approved then A would =1 and D W F would be null. Same goes if the record was withdrawn W would =1 and the other would be null. So here is my problem: I want to group by dealership and then count how many were approved, denied, withdrawn, and funded. i am running version 3.23.58. After doing much research I either need to do unions or subqueries. However, both are not availble until 4.x. Is it possible to do what I am looking to do without upgrading?
Updating Multiple Rows With Same Fields (in One Query?)
I have 2 tables here table categories +--------------------------------------- + | cat_id | cat_name | cat_total_articles | +----------------------------------------+ | 1 | PHP | 23 | +----------------------------------------+ | 2 | MySQL | 17 | +----------------------------------------+ table articles +---------------------------- + | article_id | article_cat_id | +-----------------------------+ | 1 | 1 | +-----------------------------+ | 2 | 2 | +-----------------------------+ Now I've changed an article's category from cat1 to cat2, and I need to update cat_total_articles of both cat1 (minus 1) and cat2 (plus 1) in category table. Is it possible to combine the following queries into one statement? PHP mysql_query("UPDATE categories SET cat_total_articles = cat_total_articles + 1 WHERE cat_id = 2"); PHP mysql_query("UPDATE categories SET cat_total_articles = cat_total_articles - 1 WHERE cat_id = 1");
Select / Insert Multiple Rows As A Single Row Of Multiple Columns
I have a nice database set up that contains information about orders and the items on those orders. If an order has 10 items on it, I can select the item data which returns 10 rows of data (let's say 5 colums each). Beautiful! Now I find myself needing to satisfy a program that requires all of the data on a single row. I can do this in a higher level language, but if I could accomplish it all in mysql it would be better. I don't need to sum or do any calculations. I just want to select those 5 columns of data about those 10 rows worth of items as a single row with 50 columns. For example, I'd want this: 1-1,1-2,1-3,1-4,1-5 2-1,2-2,2-3,2-4,2-5 To become: 1-1,1-2,1-3,1-4,1-5,2-1,2-2,2-3,2-4,2-5 The first complication is that the number of items on an order is variable, but is always at least 1 and can not exceed 20. The closest I've been able to get is to do something like: SELECT GROUP_CONCAT(item_number,",",qty,","",description,"",",price,",",location_number SEPARATOR ",") FROM items WHERE order_number=12345 This will give me a single text string containing the value content of the INSERT query (which will need to be manipuated outside of the SQL query to pad it with NULL values for the unused items' columns etc).
Joins With Multiple Tables And Multiple Rows
I'm making a good ol' forum, and i have three tables, users, threads and posts. when i query my threads table with a join, i need to access the users table twice to get the username of the first poster and last poster. But how? I can only figure out how to get one or the other. Is my design bad? eg SELECT TopicID, FirstPostID, LastPostID, Replies, Views, Topic, username FROM DiscussionThreads, users WHERE DiscussionThreads.FirstPostID=users.ID ORDER BY FirstPostDT DESC LIMIT 10 .
Get A Count And Some Rows

Count Rows
with php and mysql: How we can count rows in a table?
Count The Rows
I've built quite a few large join statements, which cross-reference 6 or 7 tables each. I'm using LIMIT to allow for pagination, which works fine. However, I need to find out how many rows were returned in total, and don't fancy throwing in another join to count() the results with some where statements. Anyway I can quickly find out what would've been returned without the LIMIT?
Combine Fields From Many Rows
I have a table (see below) and I want to combine all the like named items with thier respective fruit and output that to a new table (1 name many fruit). I seem to be having problems getting the syntax down: --------------------------------------------------------------------- ID | Name | Fruit --------------------------------------------------------------------- 1 | A | Mango 2 | B | Apple 3 | A | Pineapple 4 | B | Banana 5 | C | Pear -------------------------------------------------------------------- I created another table called "myFruit" that have 2 field : Name, TheFruitILike I want to update this table with the info from table "Fruit" . It should look like this: ----------------------------------------------------------------- Name | TheFruitILike ------------------------------------------------------------------ A | Mango, Pinapple B | Apple, Banana C | Pear ---------------------------------------------------------------- What kind of command should I use?
Count() Rows With 0 Matches
I am using the code below to select all the 'centres' in the database that have 'sessions' today. SELECT c.*, r.region, COUNT(*) AS count FROM centres c, regions r, sessions st WHERE c.c_id=st.c_id AND st.session_date=CURDATE() AND c.region_id=r.region_id This works and the results might look like: centre / count centre1 / 20 centre2 / 10 centre3 / 3 However, is there a way to get MySQL to also select centres from the database that have no matches in the sessions table? So the results will look like this: centre / count centre1 / 20 centre2 / 10 centre3 / 3 centre4 / 0 centre5 / 0 centre6 / 0
Count Same Field In Rows
i need to calculate the number of the same IP address that appear in the database, how can i do that? example of the database: IP Address Date and Time 127.0.0.1 5/23/2007 127.0.0.1 5/24/2007 192.168.1.2 5/25/2007 192.168.1.5 5/26/2007 127.0.0.1 5/27/2007
Count Identical Rows
I've got a log table looking like this:Code: user | action | time | | a | click | 2005-05-05 a | login | 2005-04-05 b | logout | 2005-03-02 b | click | 2005-01-25 And now I wanna display the statistics in a neat interface. But I'm having problems... is there a way to select from the above table and get rows like this:Code: user | click | login | logout | | | a | 56 | 23 | 45 b | 45 | 2 | 0 c | 12 | 32 | 32 Perhaps this is more than I could expect from MySQL?

i have a query regarding mysql like clause.can we use select name like 'john%' or 'bill%' from nametable ; Is the above syntax correct or is it wrong.If wrong please give me the correct syntax. what i am trying to do is that i am trying to select either john or bill with sum last name in all the rows.
Swap Two Fields Bertween Two Rows
I have a table in which a field (ordine) is used for the orderer output of data. This is not an index, since data are subdivided in different categories and therefore the value is not unique for the whole table. Sometimes I need to change the display order and I was used to use a query like this one: UPDATE globalmoneta as mon1,globalmoneta as mon2 SET mon1.ordine="2",mon2.ordine="3" WHERE mon1.ordine="3" AND mon2.ordine="2" AND mon1.parentid="W-CE3" AND mon2.parentid="W-CE3"; probably not very efficient, but acceptable since this operation is not often performed. Unfortunately, after a server upgrade this query is no more working. I suspect this is due to a different mysql version but I can not check it. Any idea on how to obtain the same task with a different query?
Select Only Rows Of 2 Fields That Does Not Repeat
I would like select only rows where registerNo AND entryid that does not repeat. Example, from the table only one row of 'registerNo=1 and entryid=sqbiiphiu1' and the last 5 rows will be selected. I'm using php to build this. i'm not sure if distinct can help. this is wat i thought of $query = "SELECT DISTINCT * FROM fn_vote WHERE registerNo = '".$registerNo."' AND entryid='".$entryid."'";
Show Rows With No Matching Fields
here is my query which probably needs some more advanced join statements: select * from orders o, customers c, orders_styles os, styles s where o.customers_id = c.customers_id and os.orders_id = o.orders_id and os.styles_id = s.styles_id group by o.orders_id the problem is that sometimes, because of user input, there will be no matching fields in the tables orders_styles or styles (no rows with matching orders_id exists in table orders_styles to table orders). I still want to show these rows however. Right now, as you can see it only displays rows that have matching rows in orders_styles and styles.
Multiple Count()s
I have a table with links, a log table to record clicks, and a vote table to record votes on the links. Is it possible to get the link data, the click count, vote count and vote total in one query? I can get the click count OK, but as soon as I add the vote count to the query, it multiplies them; e.g. for a link with 14 clicks and 2 votes, it tells me 28 for both figures. Here's the query: select lnk.LinkID, URL, LinkTitle, Description, count(log.LinkID) Clicks, count(Rated) Votes from fn_links lnk left join fn_log log using (LinkID) left join fn_rate vot using (LinkID) where CatID = $CatID and Status = $Active group by lnk.LinkID order by Created Then of course I want to include sum(Rating). I tried grouping on different things, but it makes no difference.

Retrieve Everything AND Count Rows In One Query
set rsminmax = con.execute("SELECT * FROM `minirules_minmax` where RuleId = '" & contractId & "'") set rsminmax2 = con.execute("SELECT COUNT(*) FROM `minirules_minmax` where RuleId = '" & contractId & "'") Is there any way to do this in one SQL query?
Slow Count(*) On Many Indexed Rows
we have a 10 million rows table. One field 'stamped' is either 'yes' or 'no'. About half the rows are 'yes' and half are 'no'. Table is indexed on 'stamped'. We just need the count on 'yes'. SELECT count(*) from T where stamped='yes' or <>'no' or >'n'... is very slow. Is there a better approach / query to get a fast result?
Count Number Of Rows Returned?
this is my connect and everything code: <?php // connect to the mysql database server. mysql_connect ($dbhost, $dbusername, $dbuserpass); mysql_select_db($dbname) or die(mysql_error()); $query = "SELECT DISTINCT category FROM $tuttable"; $result = mysql_query($query) or die(mysql_error()); while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($result)) { echo ($row['category']." | "); } echo count($row); ?> Notice "echo count($row);" How do i get this to work properly. It only returns one, because there is only 1 that it is working on. I want to return the count of all the rows that fit that query.
Select Count(*) Showing -1 Rows.

Count How Many Matching Rows Exsist
I am new to SQL Querries, can someone help me figure out how to get a result? I have a column in my db called; emails some of the email addresses in this column may contain similar domains: person1@site.com person2@site.com person3@someothersite.net I need the result to count and end up being 2 not 3 Not sure how to make the sql statement: COUNT (*) FROM database_tabe WHERE email='$email' LIKE '%@%.%' Not sure how to get this result...
Search With Multiple Fields
I have a form with essentially 5 different selects, let's call them country, state, subject area, tag, and age range. What I want to do is find all of the users who are the closest match to the search query (once I know how to do this, I can modify the query to find their names, email addresses etc...) In the database, users have a country_id (not name!), state_id in one table, and subject area id, tag id, and age range id in another table (all in the same column as multiple rows for the same user). I want to do a database search and match all of the users who meet at least 1 of the criteria, and sort them in order of closest match (all 5 criterion) to least match. Assuming I consider the order of preference to be subject area, tag, age range, country, and then state, how do I do this? To make the problem even slightly more difficult, the form doesn't return the actual country name, it returns the row the country shows up in the country table (same for the other fields) so I'm currently doing a look up for each field to figure out which country/state/etc... I'm actually dealing with. I don't see how I can do a FULLTEXT search for this information because it is all in different columns.
Update Multiple Fields
I need to update some 900,000 records, each different. I will be pasting the code into the sql window of PHPMyAdmin at my web site. The individual updates look like this: UPDATE table SET Field1='sample', Field2='sample1' WHERE UniqueID=12345 UPDATE table SET Field1='sample2', Field2='sample3', Field3='yes' WHERE UniqueID=2021432 How can I string together a bunch of these where the SET field values are always different and there is one each for 900,000 different ID's. Right now, I have these in 30 text files but I can't seem to get the syntax correct.
Update Multiple Fields With 'OR'
Is there a better way to do this (more efficient). I have up to 200 items to update per query, the id's are not sequential. Using up 200 (well 199) OR's in a single query doesnt strike me as being the best way to do this. All the fields get set to the same value. # Example UPDATE table SET value=value WHERE id=11 or id=23 or id=31 or id=74 or id=56 or id=96; # Up to 200 fields Or am I stuck with this query? (which works).
Multiple Distinct Fields
Okay SQL gurus, I have a table laid out as so: RowID | UserID | UserType | pID Now, how can I write a SQL query that would select every distinct UserID and pID combination. So if the data in the table were: 1 jjdoe internal 19 2 jjdoe internal 6 3 jjdoe internal 6 It would only return rows 1 and 2.
Ordering Multiple Fields
I'm relatively new to mySQL so I've been looking around the internet for help on how to order based on a user-defined pattern and haven't seen exactly what I'm looking for. If someone could help with this example I created to illustrate what I'm trying to do in general, I'd greatly appreciate it.Let's say I have a table in my database of Army officers with the following fields: rank, lastName, firstName. I'm looking for the right query so I can display in an HTML table every officer in the mySQL table and order the rows first by rank, then by lastName (if ranks are the same), then by firstName (if ranks and last names are the same).
Displaying Multiple Fields
I am sure amongst this community that this question is rather straight forward. I have a database where a table is added that contains the user login, password and other user information. What I wish to do now is for each user I want to be able to add a product description, old price and new price. So when this particular user logs in, they will see a list of products on one column and then the old price in another column and new price in the third column. The prices obviously have to be matched to the same product. Eg: productA new_price1 old_price2 productB new_priceX old_priceY How would one do this?
Comparing Multiple ID Fields
I have an advert table which contains three category ID fields (catid, catid2, catid3). These catid fields match up with the catid field in the category table. I want to run a query that returns any row that contains any mention of a specific category. SELECT * FROM advert, category WHERE advert.catid = category.catid AND advert.catid = '3' The above query works fine for the first advert.catid field, but once I introduce...: OR advert.catid2 = '3' ... the results start getting strange. The same row is returned 9 times.
GROUP BY Multiple Fields
Can somebody show me how to properly use GROUP BY if I'm using multiple fields. For instance: I have a table that has a month field and a year field. I want to group all entries by month and year. How do I prevent grouping a record from January 2007 with a record from January 2008?
Indexes With Multiple Fields
I have seen some tables that have indexes which contain multiple table fields. What is the purpose of having an index with multiple fields instead of a seperate index for each?
Duplicates On Multiple Fields
The table has fields: home_id, owner, street_number, direction_one, street, street_type, city I have a problem where the same address information was entered in but with different owners. How do I find all the duplicates? I tried this query: SELECT home_id, street_number, street, city FROM home_data GROUP BY street HAVING ( COUNT(street) > 1 ) but that only works for duplicates on street, at the very least it should check for dups on street_number and street and city. When I ran the above query it took forever. My table has over a million records in it. Basically my computer froze up but kept running and I kept getting virtual memory errors.
How To Prevent INSERT On Duplicate Rows With 30 Fields
I have a MySQL table with about 30 fields. I am inserting new data, and want to be sure that there are no duplicate rows. A duplicate row would be one with ALL the 30 fields (except the auto-increment index) exactly the same. How do I do that efficiently?
How To Count() From Multiple Tables
I have 3 tables as follows: Lesson: lesson_id | lesson_name | -------------------------| 1 | Lesson One | 2 | Lesson Two | 3 | Lesson Three | 4 | Lesson Four | -------------------------- student_lesson: lesson_id | student_id | ----------------------| 1 | 44 | 1 | 45 | 1 | 46 | 1 | 47 | ----------------------| class_lesson: lesson_id | class_id | -------------------| 1 | 901 | 2 | 902 | 3 | 903 | 4 | 904 | -------------------| The following query: SELECT crs_lesson.lesson_id, lesson_name, count(crs_student_lesson.student_id) AS student_count, count(crs_class_lesson.class_id) AS class_count FROM crs_lesson LEFT JOIN crs_student_lesson USING (lesson_id) LEFT JOIN crs_class_lesson USING (lesson_id) GROUP BY crs_lesson.lesson_id Produces the following result: lesson_id | lesson_name | student_count | class_count | ------------------------------------------------------| 1 | Lesson One | 4 | 4 | 2 | Lesson Two | 0 | 0 | 3 | Lesson Three | 0 | 0 | 4 | Lesson Four | 0 | 0 | ------------------------------------------------------| This shows that the second count is always set to the same value as the first count even though the values should be different. Does anyone know how to obtain the correct values?
Count Multiple Values
I have a very basic question but I havent found answer to it anywhere. I have a table that has following columns: date, answer1, answer2, answer3, answer4 and entry: 2007-1-1, 'a', 'b', 'a', 'c' What I want to do is count number of character "a":s as an answer. Normally (if using COUNT, MATCH..AGAINST) mysql returns rows it finds. I want to find out how many times this character "a" appears in a record.
Count Multiple Comlumns?
i want to count several columns independently, so i tried: SELECT count( a.id ), count( b.id ) FROM inbox AS a, forummessages AS b WHERE a.id = '1' AND b.id = '1' but that just produces: count (a.id) - count(b.id) 58 - 58 true numbers are: count (a.id) - count(b.id) 29 - 2 but i want to count the total number of messages in a where id = 1 and total number of messages in b where id = 1. Anyway to do this with just one sql statement?
Multiple Count From The Same Field
I have been having some trouble with the query below. select a.advisor_ao as 'AO', case c.existing_client when 'feps' then count(c.existing_client) else 0 end as 'total' from advisor_tb a left join company_tb b on a.advisor_id = b.advisor_id left join comp_seminar_ca_tb c on b.company_id = c.company_id group by a.advisor_ao I am not looking for an answer just wanted to know if my query is incorrect because if it is not thean it's my table structure
COUNT(*) Across Multiple Tables
I have a query to the effect of: (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM tbl_a WHERE id="1234" ...) UNION ALL (SELECT COUNT(*) FROM tbl_b WHERE id="1234" ...) This gives me two numbers--the counts of the relevant rows in each table that share the id. However, I would like to return the sum total of rows in *both* tables. Can this be done in one query with a SUM of some sort? I'm using v4.0.14-standard. I've done a quick search about the forum and couldn't quite find a solution to this.
Multiple COUNT() And GROUP BY
I think I'm on the right track, but I could use some help. I have a simple database with one table that contains observations of animal behavior. Columns include date, time, and animal_type. I want an output that shows the number of times each animal type was observed, grouped by date. Something like this (sorry about the formatting) date cat dog mouse 2004-1-1 1 2 3 2004-1-2 2 3 5 2004-1-3 1 2 3 I've gotten as far as getting one column, which would be this query: "select date, count(date) as cat from observations group by date" Can any one tell me how to get the rest?
Trying To Count The Number Of Rows In A Result Set After Query
The user fills out this form to sign up to the website, the form checks the database to see if the username has already been taken with the code: $conn = mysql_connect("localhost:3306", "root", "********") or die ("Error With Connection"); echo("connected<br><br>"); $db_sel = mysql_select_db("game",$conn) or die ("Error With Database"); $check = "select * from users where 'username' = '$username'"; $db_sel = mysql_query($check,$conn) or die (mysql_error());
Count Or Select Only The Populated Rows In A Column?
I'm trying to COUNT the number of populated rows within a column named, 'column_03', but first instead of using COUNT i'm using SELECT to see where the numbers are coming from. lets say i use the following code... SELECT column_03 FROM table_name WHERE table_name.column_01 = 'IN'' AND table.name.column_02 ='GENER" the result is a total number of 10 records. i can see that 'column_03' has 6 rows that are populated and 4 rows are empty. now what i want to do is select only the 6 rows that are popluated, once i now how to do that i can then use COUNT. Any suggestions?
Limiting Rows Returned Based On Count
say if I have 3000 records in my db, and I want to get rows 200~300 when orderd by a specific field in this table, is there a easy way to do it? I have something like: select * from table_name order by ID desc limit .... but I am not sure if this syntax allows me to do what I am trying to do .
Return A Count Of Number Of Rows Before Desired Row.
Anyone know how? find_in_set doesn't seem to be able to do what I want since I am not searching through an array but am actually running a query. What I really want is to be able to select all until something = something. I've searched the realm of google but cannot come up with anything useful, and so I am wondering if maybe I don't know the right words to be looking for.
How To Update All Fields With A Multiple Of The Field Value?
Is there a MySQL command to replace all the values of a field with the field's original value that's had a mathematical formula applied to it? Basically, I want to divide the field's original value in half, then add 40% more. The formula would be y=x/2+.2x where y is the new value and x is the original value. I know I could write a PHP script that would select each field's value, apply the formula, then update the new value, but it'd be cool if there's a MySQL built-in function to do this.
SELECT DISTINCT With Multiple Fields
I'm kind of stumped on a query I'm trying to build. basically I have a forum table like this: Post_ID | Thread_ID | Post_EntryDate | etc..... 90 | 22 | .... 89 | 21 | .... ... ... ... 85 | 1 | .... 84 | 1 | .... 83 | 10 |.... and so on. I would like to get the last 20 threads with most recent posts filtering for Thread_ID duplicates of course. so far I have this: SQLtemp = "SELECT DISTINCT Thread_ID FROM Posts ORDER BY Post_ID DESC LIMIT 0,20" this succesfully returs a list of unique Thread_IDs of the last 20 threads with most recent posts. However, I need to get the Post_IDs and other fields but when I throw Post_ID in the SELECT statement all I get is duplicate values for Thread_ID
Multiple Search Fields And Subqueries?
I'm trying to construct a query in PHP that will be able to handle multiple search fields. The data is in multiple tables. COMPANY company_id name address SERVICE TYPE company_id service OFFICE LOCATIONS company_id city_name My question is how do I construct a query that will allow there to be these three search fields (company name, service type, location). I know that subqueries are probably needed, but I'm a newbie and still not quite clear how to get these to work properly. The queries I've been able to construct return zero results unless all fields are filled in, or they return multiple listings of the company name since the company may have more than one office location. I don't want the user to be required to fill in all fields to get meaningful results.
