Force zeros to display in a count (totals) query (1 Viewer)

[SatanLuciferJones]

I have created a simple count query:

SELECT ECapQuery.TestID, Count(ECapQuery.YNavg) AS cnZ
FROM ECapQuery
WHERE (((ECapQuery.YNavg)=0))
GROUP BY ECapQuery.TestID;

However, I would like it to display all of the ECapQuery.TestIDs, even if the count is 0. Is there a way to force the query to display the count total for each ECapQuery.TestID?

You will have to join the main table listing all possible TestIDs with your query using an OUTER JOIN.

The query you posted, call it 'sub1'. Now create a new query using it and the table that lists all TestID values-- let's call that table 'TestMain'. JOIN them via TestID fields then change that JOIN line to show all from TestMain. Bring down TestId from TestMain and then create a calculated field using this:

TestIDTotal: Nz(cnZ, 0)

That query will do what you want.

Thanks plog, that was easy to follow and gave me the desired results. Thanks again!
