Count column value totals.

[LeeC1989]

Hi everyone,

This is my first post, so be gentle!

I'm also new to campaign, so be even gentler!

I am looking to find the most efficient way of calculating column counts of values. The challenge is making is fairly fluid.

The schema that I have, has (as of today), 69 columns. But this can vary on week to week. I'm looking at getting the column count and then sending an alert to someone if the count is 0...this must also count NULL values.

For example -

Name	Age	Shoe Size
John
Lee	45
Elvis	21
Greg
James	54
Steve	27

So this would give me counts of Name - 6, Age - 4 and Shoe size =  0.

This would then Alert to a user saying shoe size is empty!

I don't need to store the counts anywhere permanently.

Thanks to all!

Hi Lee,

You need to build a query and in additional data use something like below

count(Iif((@Name=''), NULL, @id))

count(Iif((@age=''), NULL, @id))

count(Iif((@shoeSize=''), NULL, @id))

This should give you the exact count.

Hi,

This can be generalized by iterating over the schema's cols to build a query def (or raw sql), then similarly iterating over the cols in the result.

Thanks,
