Baba-SQL writes "Hi Guru !
i have this table called List with the column called Name. Before i know that in the list i will have only 3 names that are "jonny , alex , alan" and not more:

Name
-----
jonny
alex
alex
jonny
alan
alex
jonny


So i want create an array for each result of recordcount for each name. Mybe i can use a multiple select count subrutine extracting the result for each name....

the result will be :

array1= 3 '(total count of jonny in the Name column)
array2= 3 '(total count of alex in the Name column)
array3= 1 '(total count of alex in the Name column)

I need an array for each name because after i need to build a simple chart displaing the result using a simple chart bar for each name.

tnx in advance for any help !

..and if u wanna use the result from the query for some processing use the temporary table to store the result set.
