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. Bauer
