That's not a GROUP BY, that's a COUNT()... and while you have to group to use any of the aggregate functions, it still doesn't solve the need at hand, yanno?

Aye - I was just thinking that to some extent you do get "grouped" data c/o iterators and a common group by/aggregate query is to count data subsets.

Indeed! Random thoughts, random responses...


The other issue is, like you say, large recordsets would require you to retrieve the whole dataset and then get the recordCount... a lot of wasted operations.

Indeed.

It was just a passing thought that might provide the means to an appropriate solution.

Yep... random thoughts, random responses. ;) I'm glad I'm not the only one who sends the "Well here's an interesting off-the-top-of-my- head though..." messages to lists... and my response was more of the same, just a counterpoint to yours. :)
