whats wrong with this
"SELECT COUNT (*) as totales FROM smaDBnegocios WHERE categoria LIKE '" + Replace(conteo__MMColParam, "'", "''" + "%' AND controlador = '1' GROUP BY categoria"

IT DOES NOT RETURN ME THE VALUE AND WHEN I APLY A REPEAT REGION IT REPEATS THE FIRST RESULT.... IT DOES NOT PUT THE VALUE TO EACH RECORD.????

THANKS

COUNT returns the number of occurences in total for the given column. So COUNT(*) will tell you how many records there are that match the criteria, and it will be a single value.

What are you trying to achieve with your SELECT statement? Maybe we can think of an alternative solution for you
