Hi,
I am working with a database mailing list of about 10,000 names. One
field in this list specifies whether a person is a "Prospect" or a
"Customer".
So my first question is... is there anyway I can count up the number of
records that are listed as "customer"? I would like to create another
table/query where I can easily know the number of people that are
listed as "customers"?
Now for my second question. Let's say of these 10,000 people, 5,000
are male and 5,000 are female. In addition, let's say 3,000 live in
New York, 2,000 live in New Jersey and 5,000 live in Boston. Is there
anyway I can award a numerical value to this variables and then add
them up? In other words, can I give the variable "female" 2 points and
"male" 1 point and also give the variable "New York" 5 points, "New
Jersey" 3 points and "Boston" 1 point? The end I have in mind is to be
able to determine that some prospects rank as a 7 (are female and from
New York) while others might only rank as a 4 (are male and from New
Jersey).
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide.
