Hi Marc,
I use some db servers and I can, in certain circumstances, use aggregate
functions with text fields; for example, if I have a table like this:
-----------------
Field1 | Field2 |
-----------------
John | aaa |
John | bbb |
Jim | ccc |
Jim | ddd |
-----------------
And I run the query:
SELECT FIELD1, COUNT(FIELD2) AS NUM FROM TABLE1 GROUP BY FIELD1
I obtain:
-----------------
Field1 | NUM |
-----------------
John | 2 |
Jim | 2 |
-----------------
Another:
SELECT FIELD1, MIN(FIELD2) AS MINDESC FROM TABLE1 GROUP BY FIELD1
The result is:
------------------
Field1 | MINDESC |
------------------
John | aaa |
Jim | ccc |
------------------
The results you see don't change if I attach those databases to OpenOffice Base;
I can write directly the queries you see, and when I run I obtain the results
above. So, I think it would be useful to have the possibility to build that
queries via wizard... What do you think about that?
