SQL Percentage
Hi Experts,
I use the query below to display the total number of different topics from my table on a pie chart .
Select COUNT(*) as [Count], Topic FROM [myDatabase].[dbo].[myTabl
I would like to display the percentage instead of the count. How could I achieve that?
Thanks for your help.

Thank you very much, your comments helped. After trying everything possible I settled with this one:
declare @total decimal
select @total = COUNT(*)
FROM [myDatabase].[dbo].[myTabl
Select COUNT(*) as [Count], cast(COUNT(*)/@total*100 as numeric(10,0)) as [Percentage], Topic
FROM [myDatabase].[dbo].[myTabl
group by Letter
declare @total decimal
select @total = COUNT(*)
FROM [myDatabase].[dbo].[myTabl
Select COUNT(*) as [Count], cast(COUNT(*)/@total*100 as numeric(10,0)) as [Percentage], Topic
FROM [myDatabase].[dbo].[myTabl
group by Letter
You may want to include that if statement as you have a potentional divide by zero error if MyTable has no rows.
Select (COUNT(*)/100)*100 as [Count], Topic FROM [myDatabase].[dbo].[myTabl
