I hope this isn't too far off topic, but I'm stuck on an SQL issue and really need some help.
I have a table with these two fields:
UserID (int)
Referer (int)
UserID is obviously my user's ID number. Referer refers to the UserID of the person who referred them.
I need to run an SQL Query that returns to me the total number of records in which a UserID is in the Referer.
For example, Ted is UserID 1 and John is UserID 2
Ted Refers, Jan, Jerry and Jack
John Refers Mary and Bill
I now have 7 records, all unique UserID's but the referer for Jan, Jerry and Jack is 1 and the referer for Mary and Bill is 2
I want to run an SQL Query that returns the following results:
UserID NumReferred
1 3
2 2
I know it's GOT to be possible to do it all in SQl. I know I can do it in CF with no problem by looping over my userid list, but that takes way too long.
Any ideas?
Thanks!
Dave
