Dear all A have a table mytable in which some records have the same value in col1. I'd like to know how show up only once, how many twice, etc. The following does what I want, but I think there should be a more elegant way, possibly invlving subquires.
create table counts (n int); insert into counts(n) select count(*) from mytable group by col1; select n,count(*) from counts group by n; drop table counts; Thanks for a hint, W.
