PatternCount( text ; List( TableName::FieldName ))

[Amram Chayim Eirinberg]

Hi all,

I'm trying to use 'PatternCount' function to give me the count of text in a field from all records. My syntax is PatternCount(text;List(TableName::FieldName)), However it only counts the text in the active field - How do I get the count of text from all records?

BTW The records are native, not related.

Any help will be very much appreciated!

List(TableName::FieldName) will give ONLY the value of TableName::FieldName.

To have a list of all the record you'll need a selfjoin relationship.

The calc will be:

PatternCount( text ; List( TableName 2::FieldName ) )

How many records is "all records"? This could be a really performance problem.
