Hi, if I got you right, you want to output each value for "Y" and then print out how often this value appears? If yes, you could try this: SELECT Y, COUNT(Y) AS NUMBER FROM TABLE GROUP BY Y HAVING U = 'me' Well, it's Monday morning and I don't know, if this will work, but I guess it does! ;-) Just try it out in phpmyadmin or so...
