row-counts to BLOB size ratio

DB2 UDB v8.2 (FP11) on AIX 5.2.

I'm not an SQL guru, so please be gentle with me.

I have a table that contains a BLOB(312MB) column, and I'd like to
determine, in an efficient way, the row-counts to BLOB size ratio. The
output would be something like this:

BLOB Size (MB) Rowcount
0-32 2540
33-64 5680
65-96 56402
....
281-312 560

Any assistance much appreciated.
Thank you.

A simple grouping will do the trick:

SELECT ( LENGTH(blob_col umn) / 32 ) * 32 AS blob_size,
COUNT(*) AS row_count
FROM ...
GROUP BY ( LENGTH(blob_col umn) / 32 ) * 32
ORDER BY 1

If you want to have exactly your above formating, a little bit of polishing
is required:

SELECT RTRIM(CHAR(blob _size - 31)) || '-' || RTRIM(CHAR(blob _size)),
row_count
FROM ( SELECT ( LENGTH(blob_col umn) / 32 ) * 32 AS blob_size,
COUNT(*) AS row_count
FROM ...
GROUP BY ( LENGTH(blob_col umn) / 32 ) * 32 ) AS t
ORDER BY 1

I had some code that worked fine for several weeks, and then yesterday it stopped working. I'm not sure what I did. Nor can I make out why it isn't working. I'm running a query that should return 3 items from the database. I then get a count of the return, which correctly tells me that I've got 3 items. I then go into a for loop which I expect to loop 3 times and print out the 3 items. Here is where things get strange: it loops 3 times and...

Hi all, I was wondering if anyone can help me with a really annoying problem I have been having. I made a derived datagrid class that will select the row when a user clicks anywhere on a cell (multi-select without modifier keys). I got that working fine, but I also wanted to keep rows selected after a sort, which I do by storing the row's id in an arraylist. The idea was to do the sort and then go back and re-select the rows with that...

Hi All :) I'm converting VB6 using True DBGrid Pro 8.0 to VB2005 using DataGridView. True DBGrid has a MultipleLines property that controls whether individual records span multiple lines.

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
