Hi, i am trying to get a count of a certain criteria but in different
columns.

Its hard to explain, but assume i have a table which consists of...

A 550
B 600
C 20
A 100
C 75
B 120
D 390

Then in a query I am trying to have the result of:
Over 500 Over 100 Over 25 Under 25
A 1 1
0 0
B 1 1
0 0
C 0 0
1 1
D 0 1
0 0

The way i have done it was do 4 queries for that criteria, then try
and do a count from those queries.
im just getting myself in a mess.

any help would be greatly appreciated.
 
I'm having trouble visualizing the structure of your table ... and "how"
depends on "what".

That said, have you looked into Access HELP for "cross-tab queries"?

Indeed a cross-tab query would be a good solution. If the fields in
your table are named 'code' and 'number', it looks like:

TRANSFORM Nz(Count([Number]),0) AS NumberOfNumber
SELECT
Code: 
FROM YourTable
GROUP BY [Code]
PIVOT IIf([Number]>500,"Over 500",IIf([Number]>100,"Over 100",IIf
([Number]>25,"Over 25","Under 25")))

I think i am getting there with the cross-tab query - can you help me
to refine it, i have:

TRANSFORM Sum([tblData].[Amount]) AS SumOfAmount
SELECT [tblData].[LoggedDate]
FROM tblData
GROUP BY format([tblData].[LoggedDate],"mmm yy")
PIVOT ([tblData].[Amount] In (>=50000,between 49999 and
10000,<100000);

I am trying to group the amounts, by month into
- Above £50,000
- Between £10,000 and £49,999
- Less than £10,000

Can anyone help?

Thanks in advance.

I realise that im just spamming this - unintentionally - but i have
the solution.
Using the help provided here, and just trial and error :

TRANSFORM Count(tblData.Amount) AS CountOfAmount
SELECT Format([tblData].[LoggedDate],"mmm yy") AS [Month]
FROM tblData
GROUP BY Format([tblData].[LoggedDate],"mmm yy"), Year([LoggedDate]),
Month([LoggedDate])
ORDER BY Year([LoggedDate]), Month([LoggedDate])
PIVOT IIf([Amount] >50000,"Over £50000",IIf([Amount]>10000,"Over
£10000",IIf([Amount]>2500,"Over £2500","Under £2500")));

Thanks everyone :)

Please post the structure of your tabel and tell us what you want
referring to fieldnames of that table.

Note that in your first post it looked like you wanted to count
records. Now you have a sum in your query.

Yeah i was working with an example from the internet too (so it was
broken down and i could understand it, as its my first cross-tab
query).
Your code really helped though.

I was wondering, if the criteria is not met and all entries result to
a count of zero - the column does not show, is there anyway to make it
show regardless?
Thanks in advance.

Found out how... (For anyone that searches this forum)...
Design View > Properties > Column Headings:
"Over £50000","Over £10000","Over £2500","Under £2500"
Match them up to the headings in the SQL query.

Thanks again to Peter and Jeff
