Took me a minute to figure out what you are trying to do, but I think I have it now.
Try this. $result = "SELECT ptype, count(*) FROM mylist_slave WHERE and user='".$my_user."' and cno='".$my_ccno."' GROUP BY ptype"; this will return you the number of rows that is the same number of packages they have setup.
