Thanks
the query you sent failed on v. 7.4, so I added an "end" to the case
statement. I selected from the tables and the results seem to be correct.
I rewrite it for archiving reasons:
select t0.code, t0.address, t0.mun, t1.code as t1code, t1.pname
count(t2.code) as t2total, count(case when t2.avail then 1 else NULL
end) as t2avail from t0, t1, t2 where t2.t0_fk = t0.code and
t2.t1_fk=t1.code group by t0.code, t0.address, t0.mun, t1.code, t1.pname
Once again thank you.
