Rune Thandy Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 I've got a table which goes something like this: id usertext1 usertext2 usertext3 label1 label2 label3123 12 12A12345 BPU Charge124 08B14501 8 Charge BPU....... When I want to make a select statement I know which column has "Charge", but I don't know where "BPU" is. This can be in a different column each time.How can I make a select statement to find out in which column the "BPU" value is. Something like: select (something) where id='123'I want to fit it into a webpage, but I have to get the right select statement first.I pick up the "Charge" column from the page and want to set the first two digits from the accompanying column (e.g. label2/usertext2) in the column where the "BPU" is.This is probably not very clear, but it's a bit difficult to explain.So if you need further information to help me, please ask, because I really need some help here.

iyeru42 Posted September 11, 2006 Share Posted September 11, 2006 You want to select the column `label1`? SELECT COUNT( * ) AS `Rows` , `label1`FROM `(something)`GROUP BY `label1`ORDER BY `label1` Would count how many things have label1. I wouldn't know how to do what you're doing though.
