Counting rows that match 2 criteria?

I've been hunting for this since yesterday and I know it's gotta be something silly I'm just overlooking, but I'm very new to iWork and spreadsheets in general... any help would be greatly appreciated.
Basically I've a simple table that tracks two items on each row: a trouble code and a time.
What I need is a formula that will count all rows in which trouble code 5 occurred at 8pm. It seems like it would be easy... a COUNTIF with an AND statement? But I just can't get the syntax right, or maybe I'm just not picking the right function.
Thanks!

Thank you. I had read about the COUNTIFS function, but for some reason I didn't see it in the list of options among all of the other stuff I was trying. It's confusing when formulas aren't standardized across the different spreadsheet platforms.
Happily, they aren't standardized.
The Ford T era is gone and I hope that it will never return.

Reorganize function will not allow "select rows that match"

I'm trying to sort data in a sheet the same way excel lets you sort by using "filter"
I'm told that using the Reorganize function will allow me to do this especially if I select the "select rows that match" options.
The only problem is that that options is grayed out and I can't use it.
Anybody else have any suggestions or instructions>?
Thanks

Make sure you have selected a table

Analytic function to count rows based on Special criteria

Hi
I have the following query with analytic function but wrong results on the last column COUNT.
Please help me to achive the required result.Need to change the way how I select the last column.
1)I am getting the output order by b.sequence_no column . This is a must.
2)COUNT Column :
I don't want the total count based on thor column hence there is no point in grouping by that column.
The actual requirement to achieve COUNT is:
2a -If in the next row, if either the THOR and LOC combination changes to a new value, then COUNT=1
(In other words, if it is different from the following row)
2b-If the values of THOR and LOC repeats in the following row, then the count should be the total of all those same value rows until the rows become different.
(In this case 2b-WHERE THE ROWS ARE SAME- also I only want to show these same rows only once. This is shown in the "MY REQUIRED OUTPUT) .
My present query:
select    r.name REGION ,
          p.name PT,
          do.name DELOFF,
          ro.name ROUTE,
decode(th.thorfare_name,'OSIUNKNOWN',NULL,th.thorfare_name)
           THOR,
         l.name LOC ,
          b.sequence_no SEQ,
           CASE WHEN th.thorfare_name = LAG (th.thorfare_name)
            OVER (order by b.sequence_no)
            or th.thorfare_name = LEAD (th.thorfare_name)
            OVER (order by b.sequence_no)
            THEN COUNT(b.sequence_no) OVER (partition by r.name,th.thorfare_name,l.name order BY b.sequence_no

Hi,

Considering your output, I'm not even sure you need analytic count.Yes sure.
I am describing the query again here with 3 tables now to make this understand better.
Given below are the create table statements and insert statements for these 3 tables.

So the issues are
1) the count column values are wrong in my query.
2)I dont want to repeat the same rows(Please see EXPECTED output and compare it against the original)
3)Want the output in exactly same way as in EXPECTED OUTPUT as I dont want to group by thor name(Eg. I dont want the count for all DUBLIN ROAD but I want to examine rows for the next one, if THOR/LOC combination is different in next row then COUNT=1 else COUNT=Count of no. of rows for that thor/loc combination until the combination change -So there are same value multiple rows which i need to show it in 1 row with the total count)
I am explaining below this in more detail!!
I only need 1 row per same THOR/LOC names coming multiple times but I need the count shown against that 1 row(i.e COUNT= how many rows with same thor/loc combination until THOR/LOC combo changes value).
Then repeat the process until all rows are finished..
If there is no multiple row with same THOR/LOC coming in the following row-i.e the following row is a different THOR/LOC combination, then the count for that row is 1.
Hope this is clear.
Is this doable?
Thanks in advance.

Count rows that are max timestamp

Hi,
I'm trying to run a query that will count only rows that are max timestamp.
i have a submit table which has dates of submissions, however some application numbers have multiple rows in this table. I need to count only one row per application and it has to be the latest submission data.
I have tried a subquery and its not working, I'm stuck at this point.
Thanks for help :)
example table
pk app # submit_date
12 test-1 02222011 13:30
13 test-2 02232011 09:45
14 test-1 02232011 09:51
how do i count rows but based on max timestamp?

select
count(s.pk)
from
submit s
where exists (select s1.app#, max(s1.submit_date) from submit s1 group by s1.app#)
I dont really understand what you are doing there.
SQL> WITH T
2       AS (SELECT 12 pk, 'TEST-1' app#, SYSDATE submit_date FROM DUAL
3           UNION ALL
4           SELECT 13 pk, 'TEST-2' app#, SYSDATE + 1 submit_date FROM DUAL
5           UNION ALL
6           SELECT 14 pk, 'TEST-1' app#, SYSDATE + 2 submit_date FROM DUAL)
7 SELECT * FROM T;
        PK APP#   SUBMIT_DA
        12 TEST-1 23-FEB-11

Extracting rows that match a certain criterion

Hi guys,
I realize that spreadsheet software has certain limitations, but I was hoping I could stretch it a tad bit, by asking if it's possible to take rows that meet a certain criterion and have them listed in another table.
I've included an example wherein I take a list of a few well-known crypto characters and extract those that are not checked as evil (i.e., evil is FALSE) into a different list.
http://pyth.net/hotlinking/cast-salaries.png
I'd appreciate any suggestions; and thanks in advance for any time taken to respond.
Regards,
Friðrik Már

We have posted a solution but now I have to find it. You can test for the "TRUE" / "FALSE" nature of the check box then show related row/column information using VLOOKUP, and IF statements. You could then filter for the presence of a value.
=IF(A2=TRUE,VLOOKUP(...

ADF-BC JSF Counting the number of displayed rows that meet certain criteria

Hi everyone.
I have a JSF page that displays a table containing rows with a type attribute that may be either 'A' or 'B'. The page uses an executeWithParams form in order to set query parameters and execute the query. My users have asked me to display percentage information for type A rows at the same page.
One way to do this would be to create an application module method that would parametrize the query, execute it, iterate through the results, do the calculation and return everything in a formatted string.. Somehow this approach does not seem right.
Is there a best practice regarding situations like this? Any reference to code example would be perfect.
Thanassis

Maybe you can use the getEstimatedRowCount() method on the view.

Using Formulas and Variables To Count Rows That Meet Certain Conditions

I have a web intelligence report designed that shows results of shipments that arrived and departed in a given period and the mode of transport (air, ocean, motor). I've tried building formulas to give me counts for example of the number of shipments arrived via ocean, number of shipments that departed via ocean, and so on.
I tried various the Count and If functions in different ways but I can't seem to get them to work. What is the correct logical set of variables or formulas I need to build so that I can display summarized information in my report that shows:
Shipments Arrived via Ocean
Shipments Arrived via Air
Shipments Departed via Ocean
Shipments Departed via Air
Key report fields are [Shipment Identifier] , [Mode]=Ocean, Air, Motor, and [Status] = Arrive;Depart

You should be able to do one of the following:
1. Create a measure variable ShipmentCount as
=Count([Shipment Identifier])
In the report, use Mode, Status and ShipmentCount. This will give an aggregated count per Mode per Status.
2. Create a formula for each of Mode/Status combination like
=Count([Shipment Identifier]) where ([Mode] = "Ocean" and [Status] = "Arrive")

Selecting Single Rows that match to a column within group function output

Trying to write a Query that will look through a data set that will return the Barcodes of CompoundNames that have a summed Quantity > 500.
So if it was ran against the sample table below the output would be
0005
0006
0007
0008
0009
0010
Barcode, CompoundName, BatchId, Quantity
0001, XE 1000, XE 1000 100, 100
0002, XE 1000, XE 1000 101, 100
0003, XE 1000, XE 1000 102, 100
0004, XE 1000, XE 1000 103, 100
0005, XE 2000, XE 2000 100, 100
0006, XE 2000, XE 2000 101, 100
0007, XE 2000, XE 2000 102, 100
0008, XE 2000, XE 2000 103, 100
0009, XE 2000, XE 2000 104, 100
0010, XE 2000, XE 2000 105, 100
0011, XE 3000, XE 3000 100, 100
I've got this far
Select CompoundName, SUM(QUANTITY) FROM Table
GROUP BY CompoundName
HAVING SUM(QUANTITY) > 500)
order by compoundname;
But I need each Barcode that corresponds to each batchid when the summed quantity of the batches is > 500.
TIA

Replacing a GROUP BY Aggregate function by analytic equivalent (using PARTITION BY)
will return every ROW (limited by where clause) but will not perform
actual "aggregation operation.
So it is possible that *selected result set* could contain duplicate row. Of course it depends on columns being seected and input data.
+Ofcourse OPs sample data returns the same result with or without DISTINCT+
For example...
*WITH DISTINCT*
{code}
sudhakar@ORCL>with t1 as
2 (select 0001 barcode,'XE0000' COMPOUNDNAME, 700 quantity FROM DUAL UNION ALL
3 select 0003 ,'XE1000' , 20 FROM DUAL UNION ALL

Counting Rows from a ResultSet

Hi!
If I retreive some information from a database, say by using:
ResultSet RS = Stmt.executeQuery("select * from events");How can I get a value for the amount of rows in this ResultSet?
Thanks!
Alastair

Almost everyone, when they first use ResultSet thinks of it as a container with the data rows already in there, and wonders why there's no size method.
But that's not how they work. A ResultSet, generally, holds only one row at a time. next requests the next row from the database and before next is called the ResultSet doesn't know if another row is going to be available. Indeed the number of rows that qualify for return in the result set may actually change while you are processing it.
Doing the SELECT COUNT(*) request asks the database for the number of rows that match any criteria in the SELECT, but that number may have changed when you actually retrieve the rows. Someone else may have added or removed rows.

Select / how to select row that meet only one of select-options

Hello ,
I am developing rapport in release 6.0.
On the screen I have three select -options s1 , s2 , s3
I db table I have several entries with values in f1 f2 and f3
f1 f2 f3
1 | 2 |
3 | 4 |
5 | 6 |
a | b | c
When I enter , on screen 1 in S1 , and c in f3 i do not get any data in internal table . Obviously program is looking
for the row that satisfies   both criteria .
My question is what would be the way to get for same screen entry all row satisfying firs criteria and all lines satisfying
second criteria independently . SO i would like to have row 1|2 and row a|b|c if user enters , value "1" in s1 and value "c" in s3.
Thanks
source code .
select * from db_tab
into corresponding fields of table Itab
where f1 in s1 and
            f2 in s2 and
            f3 in s3.

Hello ,
I was thinkinf of OR , but i doesnt work .
When use enter only S3 and leave empty S1 the resul will be ALL entries from db table .
S1 = initial
S = c
result is
1|2
3|4
5|6
a|b|c
Thank you

How to get row count(*) for each table that matches a pattern

I have the following query that returns all tables that match a pattern (tablename_ and then 4 digits). I also want to return the row counts for these tables.
Currently a single column is returned: tablename. I want to add the column RowCount.
DECLARE @SQLCommand nvarchar(4000)
DECLARE @TableName varchar(128)
SET @TableName = 'ods_TTstat_master' --<<<<<< change this to a table name
SET @SQLCommand = 'SELECT [name] as zhistTables FROM dbo.sysobjects WHERE name like ''%' + @TableName + '%'' and objectproperty(id,N''IsUserTable'')=1 ORDER BY name DESC'
EXEC sp_executesql @SQLCommand

The like operator requires a string operand.
http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms179859.aspx
Example:
DECLARE @Like varchar(50) = '%frame%';
SELECT * FROM Production.Product WHERE Name like @Like;
-- (79 row(s) affected)

Counting rows with multiple criteria

I know this is a silly beginner question, but is there an easy way to count the number of rows in a table which match criteria based on different columns (sort of a countif with multiple criteria). For example, if Column A in a table has "All, Some, None" responses and Column B has "Main, Off" responses, is there an easy way to count the number of rows in which Column A has All and Column B has Off?

From an intellectual and philosophical view I agree with you. But from a practical view what I really want to do is just use one application for my spreadsheet tasks, not jump back and forth because one sheet I share with MS Windows users, and another with Numbers users, and another with OS X users who don't have Numbers or Excel but do have NeoOffice. Maybe I have to settle for that though.
Yeah... this kind of situation stinks. Its like needing to writing software that will run on both Macs and PCs.
Anyway, I've followed the advise in this forum and resorted to using a hidden column with concatenated values to solve my own problem, though it does seem like a bit of a hack compared to managing a single formula in a single cell. Horses for courses I suppose.
jaxjason has posted a very elegant pivot table like solution that utilizes this technique. See http://www.numberstemplates.com/forums/showthread.php?t=36
Btw, from what I've read on the net to date, SUM (in Excel) with an array formula answers the original authors problem of counting occurrences of values, not SUMPRODUCT; which I believe sums up the contents of cells in a range, if cells in other ranges match specific criteria.
Yes, if you use the '*' (as indicated above) then SUM() is sufficient though SUMPRODUCT() will work as it degenerates to SUM when there is only one argument. If you use two arrays as arguments (like: = SUMPRODUCT((A1:A4="All"), (B1:B4="Off")), then SUMPRODUCT() is necessary. Here's my understanding of how it works (I hope your able to follow my abuse of algebraic techniques):
=SUM((A1:A4="All") * (B1:B4="Off"))
expanding the array expressions...
=SUM((A1="All", A2="All", A3="All", A4="All") * (B1="Off", B2="Off", B3="Off", B4="Off"))
at this point Excel computes the equality expressions, for example...
=SUM((TRUE, FALSE, TRUE, FALSE) * (TRUE, TRUE, FALSE, FALSE))
expanding the array multiplication...
=SUM((TRUE * TRUE, FALSE * TRUE, TRUE * FALSE, FALSE * FALSE))
Excel, apparently, then, when forced to multiply Boolean values, maps TRUE -> 1 and FALSE -> 0...
=SUM((1 * 1, 0 * 1, 1 * 0, 0 * 0))
performing the multiplications...
=SUM((1, 0, 0, 0))
summing...
=1 + 0 + 0 + 0
resulting...
=1
I'm afraid, now, if I continue any further, Yvan will chastise me.

Column count doesn't match value count at row 1, unknown number of columns

Hi,
I am making a program to read data from excel files as the above and store them in tables. I have managed to read all the data from excel files as a string and store them in a table.
ID Name Salary
50 christine 2349000
43 paulina 1245874
54 laura 4587894
23 efi 3456457
43 jim 4512878
But in my project I have several other files that have same cell that are blank as the above example
ID Name Salary
50 christine 2349000
43 paulina
laura 4587894
23 3456457
43 jim 4512878

How i would be able to store only the values that i have and leave blank in the second row the Salary and in the third row the ID? Is there a way for my program to skip the blanks as empty value?

In an unrelated observation, it appears you are creating new database tables to hold each document. I don't think this is a good idea. Your database tables should be created using the database's utility program and not programmatically. The database schema should hardly ever change once the project is complete.
As a design approach: One database table can hold your document names, versions, and date they were uploaded. Another table will hold the column names and data types. Another table can hold the data (type for all data = String). This way, you can join the three tables to retrieve a document. Your design will only consists of those three tables no matter how many unique documents you have. You probably should seek the advice of a DBA or experienced Java developer on exactly how structure those tables. My design is a rough layout.

When I make a Smart Album, will the photos that match the Smart Album criteria still be present in their original location(s) in the Library after they go into the Smart Album?

When I make a Smart Album in iPhoto, will the photos that meet the criteria of my Smart Album still be present in their original location in my Library after they are "brought into" the Smart Album?

Yes.
Iphoto works as a Library. Everything is in the Library, and albums (Smart or otherwise) reference the photos from the Library.
Nother way to think about it: An Event is a place. An Album is a list...

How do I get a sum of cells for rows that contain a text in a drop down menu?

I am trying to track individual sales with each of my vendors. I have a column of drop down menu's that list each of my vendors. I am trying to associate a dollar amount for a single transaction in a row that is associated with a vendor and get a sum for all of my single trasactions with that vendor for the year. I have used =countif to build a pie chart of % of transactions per vendor now I am trying to get a dollar amount as well
Thanks in advance
Don

HI Don,
COUNTIF will count, SUMIF will sum.
The main difference between them is that COUNTIF works with data in a single column—in this case the column containing the vendor names—while SUMIF uses two columns—the vendor names to decide which rows to include in the sums and the amount column to determine the amount to incude.
Example:
Main: Vendor names in column A, descriptions in columns B and C, and dollar amounts in column D
Summary: Vendor names in column A, Number of transactions in column B, Dollar totals in column C
Formulas inn Summary (both are entered in row 2 and filled doen to the last row):
B2: =COUNTIF(Main :: $A,A2)
C2: =SUMIF(Main :: $A,A2,Main :: $D)
Regards,
Barry
