Todd,

No - unfortunately the "real" ranges needed are not so neat - that is - they aren't equally divided. I know that was not evident in my example, but thanks anyway!

>>Example, suppose you have a simple table with one field for a customer number. Evey time the customer purchases something, they get a new entry in this table. Now it's easy to get a count for each customer of how many purchases they made, however - what if I want a "range count" - that is - a listing of how many customers made 1-5 purchases, how many made 6-10 purchases, 11-15, 16-20 and so on? Is there a way to wrap all this up in a single SQL statement?
