Are you looking for something like this? SELECT 1.0 * sum(CASE WHEN inspect_pass THEN 1 ELSE 0 END) / count(*) FROM ( SELECT DISTINCT ON (inspect_id) inspect_id, inspect_pass FROM t_inspect_result ORDER BY inspect_id, id ) AS s; Multiply by 100.0 instead of 1.0 if you want percent. If you have a cast from boolean to integer (built-in in 8.1, easily created in earlier versions) then you could replace the CASE expression with a cast (inspect_pass::integer). Whether to use the more explicit CASE or the more concise cast is a matter of style. -- Michael Fuhr ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Have you searched our list archives? http://archives.postgresql.org
