hello all new to the site trying to get some help with a script im trying to write.

we have a database in which im pulling 4 colums from i can do that all fine with no troubles .for the count i need i can get the count of the TOTAL with no problems either. my issue is that i need to get those totals dependant on the data from one column.

for instance

use *my DB*
select cu_xx,cu_xxx_cu_xxxx,cu_xxxxx
from dbo.1
where cu_xx = 'xx'

that statement returns the bulk of what im after but in colum cu_xxxxx there are multiple entries per various company. i would like a statement that will return the number of rows for each company.

hope that make sense? any ideas?

i know a select count(cu_xxxxx) from dbo.1 would return it all but i need it broken down by company is that possible?
