Hi Set,

select count(1)
  from (select pro, fa
          from tab
          where Key = :Key
          group by pro, fa)
into :ProFaCount


enough?

Well, you need to know more about PRO and FA than we do, but if they are character fields and neither of them can include _, then maybe:

select count( distinct coalesce( PRO, '' ) || '_' || coalesce( FA, '' ) ) ProFaCount
from Tab
where Key = :Key

would work. The COALESCE is there in case the fields could be NULL. If PRO and FA are non-null numbers and FA always is between 0 and 99, then the query would be

select count( distinct ( 100 * PRO ) + FA ) ProFaCount
from Tab
where Key = :Key 

HTH,
Set

Hi,


Is there a way to get this ProFaCount in one statement (without for select)


ProFaCount = 0;
for
  select distinct PRO, FA
    from Tab
   where Key = :Key
    into :PRO, :FA
do
  ProFaCount = ProFaCount + 1;

Thank you for your help.


Regards,

Josef
