Hi ,

This is a simple CNT on a field, it works fine on one table, but the same dont work on, on the other table. i dont know what is the problem. Anyones help is greatly appreciated.

here is the code sample :

TABLE FILE TABLE1
SUM
CNT.FIELD1
END

This is returing the code for the SQL as follows:

SELECT COUNT(*) FROM table1 as
T1;


i wanted the code to work like the below SQL Syntax:


SELECT COUNT(field1) FROM table1 as
T1;



Thanks
Rekha

Thanks every one for your suggestion.
I think i found the solution by myself.
It is the database field design, if the field is "Not Null", then it will work like below:

SELECT COUNT(*) FROM table1 as
T1;

if the field allows Nulls in the table then we can get the syntax like :

SELECT COUNT(field1) FROM table1 as
T1;

when you wrtite the code in webfocus like this :

TABLE FILE TABLE1
SUM
CNT.FIELD1
END

I hope this will help some one else.

thanks
