SUM of COUNTS

I am trying to get the SUM of COUNTS.

I have the following code which is counting correctly:
'Count the number of POSITION #1 VACANCIES
      sqlCountVacancies1 = "SELECT Count(tblStaff.PositionStatus1) AS CountVacancies1 " & _
      "FROM tblStaff " & _
      "WHERE tblStaff.PositionStatus1 = 'Vacant' "

      Set objCountVacancies1 = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
      objCountVacancies1.Open sqlCountVacancies1, objConn

I have 10 fields that I am counting: PositionStatus(1-10).
I now want to get a count of the total:
   CountVacancies1 + CountVacancies2 + CountVacancies3 + ..... CountVacancies10

I tried the following code:
'Count the TOTAL NUMBER OF VACANCIES
      sqlSumVacancies = "SELECT Sum(Count(CountVacancies1) + Count(CountVacancies2) + Count(CountVacancies3) + Count(CountVacancies4) + Count(CountVacancies5) + Count(CountVacancies6) + Count(CountVacancies7) + Count(CountVacancies8) + Count(CountVacancies9) + Count(CountVacancies10)) AS SumVacancies " & _

      Set objSumVacancies = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
      objSumVacancies.Open sqlSumVacancies, objConn

and get a Syntax error:

Set objSumVacancies = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
^

I found a solution using UNION ALL:

sqlCountVacanciesTotal = "select sum(CountVacancies) as CountVacanciesTotal from (SELECT count(PositionStatus1) as CountVacancies FROM tblStaff where PositionStatus1 = 'Vacant' " & _
"union all SELECT count(PositionStatus2) as CountVacancies FROM tblStaff where PositionStatus2 = 'Vacant' " & _
"union all SELECT count(PositionStatus3) as CountVacancies FROM tblStaff where PositionStatus3 = 'Vacant' " & _
"union all SELECT count(PositionStatus4) as CountVacancies FROM tblStaff where PositionStatus4 = 'Vacant' " & _
"union all SELECT count(PositionStatus5) as CountVacancies FROM tblStaff where PositionStatus5 = 'Vacant' " & _
"union all SELECT count(PositionStatus6) as CountVacancies FROM tblStaff where PositionStatus6 = 'Vacant' " & _
"union all SELECT count(PositionStatus7) as CountVacancies FROM tblStaff where PositionStatus7 = 'Vacant' " & _
"union all SELECT count(PositionStatus8) as CountVacancies FROM tblStaff where PositionStatus8 = 'Vacant' " & _
"union all SELECT count(PositionStatus9) as CountVacancies FROM tblStaff where PositionStatus9 = 'Vacant' " & _
"union all SELECT count(PositionStatus10) as CountVacancies FROM tblStaff where PositionStatus10 = 'Vacant')"

I think an easier way to do this would be to use a group by statement:

Select Sum(count(tblStaff.PositionStatus1))
From tblStaff
Group by tblStaff.PositionStatus1

Open in new window


This will return the sum of the count of all the different possible values of tblStaff.PositionStatus1.

You could add a where clause(in between the From and Group by clause for all specific tblStaff.PositionStatus1's you'd like such as
WHERE tblStaff.PositionStatus1='this' OR tblStaff.PositionStatus1='that' OR...

Open in new window


and so on

Sorry, I don't think I explained correctly.

I have 10 fields:
PositionStatus1
PositionStatus2
PositionStatus3
PositionStatus4
PositionStatus5
PositionStatus6
PositionStatus7
PositionStatus8
PositionStatus9
PositionStatus10

The first calculation is to count WHERE the Position status = Vacant (this is working)
The 2nd calculation that I am trying to do is to count the TOTAL of all the above.

What Kind of Coding Program is Right for You?

There are many ways to learn to code these days. From coding bootcamps like Flatiron School to online courses to totally free beginner resources. The best way to learn to code depends on many factors, but the most important one is you. See what course is best for you.

Oh, i see, well in that case your select statement doesn't need the SUM function, you can just add up all the counts, so it should be...
SELECT (Count(CountVacancies1) + Count(CountVacancies2) + Count(CountVacancies3) + Count(CountVacancies4) + Count(CountVacancies5) + Count(CountVacancies6) + Count(CountVacancies7) + Count(CountVacancies8) + Count(CountVacancies9) + Count(CountVacancies10)) AS SumVacancies

Open in new window


You should be able to add up the individual counts.  The SUM function is more used to SUM up a specific column of data.

>> The first calculation is to count WHERE the Position status = Vacant (this is working)
Do you have another column as Position Status (or) Are you referring PositionStatus1, PositionStatus2 etc in the WHERE clause?

Alex MatzingerDatabase AdministratorCommented:
If you are doing each count(PositionStatus[1-10]) seperately already, is it possible for you to store those values into an array, or into seperate variables, and just add them up normally.  Or do you have to do this using SQL?

JLohmanAuthor Commented:
To calculate the totals WHERE the 10 fields (PositionStatus(1-10) = VACANT I am using the following code for each field (changing the number from 1 to 10)

'Count the number of POSITION #1 VACANCIES
      sqlCountVacancies1 = "SELECT Count(tblStaff.PositionStatus1) AS CountVacancies1 " & _
      "FROM tblStaff " & _
      "WHERE tblStaff.PositionStatus1 = 'Vacant' "

      Set objCountVacancies1 = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
      objCountVacancies1.Open sqlCountVacancies1, objConn

I then want a sum of all the CountVacancies. I don't think i need a WHERE clause in this statement.
I want a TOTAL of

CountVacancies1 + CountVacancies2 + CountVacancies3 .....

i am not clear which scenario you are wanting...

does the sum of the individual column counts have meaning  query 1

or do you really want query 2 which counts the occurences of any row with a 'Vacant' status?


sqlCountVacancies = "SELECT Count(case PositionStatus1 when 'Vacant' then 1 else 0 end) " & _
"+ Count(case PositionStatus2 when 'Vacant' then 1 else 0 end)  " & _
"+ Count(case PositionStatus3 when 'Vacant' then 1 else 0 end)  " & _  
"+ Count(case PositionStatus4 when 'Vacant' then 1 else 0 end)  " & _
"+ Count(case PositionStatus5 when 'Vacant' then 1 else 0 end)  " & _  
"+ Count(case PositionStatus6 when 'Vacant' then 1 else 0 end)  " & _
"+ Count(case PositionStatus7 when 'Vacant' then 1 else 0 end)  " & _  
"+ Count(case PositionStatus8 when 'Vacant' then 1 else 0 end)  " & _
"+ Count(case PositionStatus9 when 'Vacant' then 1 else 0 end)  " & _
"+ Count(case PositionStatus10 when 'Vacant' then 1 else 0 end)  " & _  
    "FROM tblStaff " 

or

sqlCountVacancies = "SELECT Count(*) " & _
"FROM tblStaff "  & _
" where 'Vacant' in (positionstatus1,positionstatus2,positionstatus3,positionstatus4" & _
" ,positionstatus5,positionstatus6,positionstatus7,positionstatus8,positionstatus9,positionstatus10)"

also why are you submitting 10 queries to the database rather than 1 query and looping through the result set for the
10 /11 counts?

JLohmanAuthor Commented:
I want the display for each field plus a total:

Number of Position 1 vacancies: 16
Number of Position 2 vacancies: 14
Number of Position 3 vacancies: 13
Number of Position 4 vacancies: 5
Number of Position 5 vacancies: 2
Number of Position 6 vacancies: 4
Number of Position 7 vacancies: 2
Number of Position 8 vacancies: 0
Number of Position 9 vacancies: 0
Number of Position 10 vacancies: 0
Total vacancies: 43

The attached code for the TOTAL is close but it is ONLY counting the first 3 fields.
'Count the TOTAL NUMBER OF VACANCIES
  sqlCountVacancies = "SELECT Count(*) AS CountVacancies " & _
  "FROM tblStaff "  & _

Is you Total count correct? Is it not the sum of all vacancies (position 1,2,3 etc)?

No the total count is not correct, the display above is the real data. The total does not add up.

NO

it is not just counting the first 3 fields.... WE ARE COUNTING ROWS

so the first query should have given the correct/desired result....

<Just a quick comment>

FWIW, (If i am understanding the basic issue here)

Perhaps your data should be "Normalized" into one field.
So instead of doing things like this:
=NZ(Fld1)+NZ(Fld2)+NZ(Fld3)...

You can simply do this:
=Sum(SomeField)

Again, just a comment, I'll let you continue with previous experts...

It isn't a sum of just one field, I am trying to get a total of 10 different fields where the data equals the text 'Vacant'.

Right now I am stuck with the following code, it is not correctly adding the results of the 10 separate fields:

'Count the TOTAL NUMBER OF VACANCIES
      sqlCountVacancies = "SELECT Count(*) AS CountVacancies " & _
      "FROM tblStaff "  & _
      "WHERE 'Vacant' IN (PositionStatus1,PositionStatus2,PositionStatus3,PositionStatus4,PositionStatus5,PositionStatus6,PositionStatus7,PositionStatus8,PositionStatus9,PositionStatus10) " 

      Set objCountVacancies = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Recordset")
      objCountVacancies.Open sqlCountVacancies, objConn

My results(display) looks like this, but the Total Vacancies should be 56!

Number of Position 1 vacancies: 16
Number of Position 2 vacancies: 14
Number of Position 3 vacancies: 13
Number of Position 4 vacancies: 5
Number of Position 5 vacancies: 2
Number of Position 6 vacancies: 4
Number of Position 7 vacancies: 2
Number of Position 8 vacancies: 0
Number of Position 9 vacancies: 0
Number of Position 10 vacancies: 0
Total vacancies: 43

HELP!!!!

<It isn't a sum of just one field, I am trying to get a total of 10 different fields where the data equals the text 'Vacant'.>
That was my point, your data should be "normalized" into one filed, not multiple fields.
Then this would be easy.
Instead of having this:
Sat, Sun
2,4
3,1
9,7

You would have something like this:
Day, Amt
Sat,2
Sun,4
Sat,3
Sun,1
Sat,9
Sun,7

Again, this is the standard way this is done.

I understand that sometimes changing the Data format is not possible, this is why I stated:

The reason you are not getting the correct results with your current query is because you most likely have multiple fields set to vacant at a time and your query is counting those instances as 1.  

You need to most likely use Sharath_123's longer query to get the results you want. (with the added fix from Lowfatspread).  Please try this, post the entire query(again) and then post the entire error message.  Thank you.

I am attaching the code. It functions correctly until I add the sql CountVacanciesTotal code.

I used Sharath's code and modified based on Lowfatspread.

I cannot tell why your code is giving you errors.  Here is another option.  though it is very inefficient and i would not suggest it for any type of large scale databse...

Select (temp1.p1 + temp2.p2 + ... + temp10.p10) as Total
from
(SELECT count(*) as p1
FROM tblStaff
WHERE PositionStatus1='VACANT') as temp1, 
(SELECT count(*) as p2
FROM tblStaff
WHERE PositionStatus2='VACANT') as temp2,
...
(SELECT count(*) as p10
FROM tblStaff
WHERE PositionStatus10='VACANT') as temp10
