Question

i have one table, let’s call it ‘TBL’.
i have one column that have only 3 values available.(let’s say ‘AAA’, ‘BBB’, ‘CCC’)
the values can return multiple times.
for example:

TBL
---

Column1
-------
AAA
AAA
BBB
CCC
BBB
CCC
BBB

i want to create a table result that looks like this:

TBL-RESULT

AAA+BBB 60%
CCC     40%

i want to show AAA and BBB in one result and there precentage from all values in one line,
and CCC in a second line as well.

the big problem is also that i need to do so in sql of ACCESS (2007).

can someone help me?

Answer 1

Assume table is called MyTable and column is MyColumn

    select IIF(MyColumn<>'CCC', 'AAA+BBB', 'CCC'), 
     100*count(MyColumn='CCC')/(select count(*) from MyTable) from MyTable
     group by MyColumn='CCC'
