Question

I have a table where different participants are given multiple boxes of medicines on multiple days. I am trying to create a frequency table showing how much medicines have been distributed by the number of boxes to the participants.

The result I’m looking for is –

2 boxes = 1 (since only Lynda got a total of 2 boxes), 4 boxes = 2 (since Ryan and Rinky both got a total of 4 boxes after adding up the medicine boxes)

Please let me know what approach would be the best in this case.
Thanks for your help.

Answer 1

I think you want:

SELECT t.SumOf, Count(t.[PARTICIPANT ID]) AS CountOf
FROM (SELECT Table1.[PARTICIPANT ID], Sum(Table1.MEDICINE_BOX) AS SumOf
FROM Table1
GROUP BY Table1.[PARTICIPANT ID])  AS t
GROUP BY t.SumOf;

Where table1 is the name of your table.
