Top 'x' results - 7/16/2007 16:22:46   
Greetings,
let's say I have a table with 2 fields, customer and amount.
customerA, 100.00
customerA, 200.00
customerB, 50.00
customerC, 250.00
customerD, 75.00
customerE, 30.00
customerE, 100.00
customerF, 100.00
customerG, 40.00

(Customers can repeat and there is never a set amount of them.)

I would like to see the TOP 5 Sums and then a Sum of the remaining
example:
customerA, 300.00
customerC, 250.00
customerE, 130.00
customerF, 100.00
customerD, 75.00
OTHERS, 90.00

Any help is always greatly appreciated.

What do you currently have? Are you using the DRW or straight ASP?

Do you have anything to start with?

Guess that might help a little.
Using the DRW
I can get as for as the SELET TOP 5 .....
As in:
SELECT TOP 5 Sum(amount) AS top5total, customer
FROM table
GROUP BY customer
ORDER BY Sum(amount) DESC , customer;

Then I would use:
<%=FP_FieldVal(fp_rs,"customer")%> <%=FP_FieldVal(fp_rs,"top5total")%>
for the results
Having trouble (As in I have no idea where to start) for the remaing total.

Thanks,
Greg

I found a solution if anyone might be intrested.
SELECT SUM(AMOUNT), CUSTOMER FROM TABLE
WHERE CUSTOMER IN (
SELECT TOP 5 customer
  FROM table
  GROUP BY customer 
  ORDER BY Sum(amount) DESC , customer )
GROUP BY CUSTOMER
UNION 
SELECT SUM(AMOUNT), 'OTHERS' as customer from table
WHERE CUSTOMER NOT IN (
SELECT TOP 5 customer
  FROM table
  GROUP BY customer 
  ORDER BY Sum(amount) DESC , customer )


Thanks,
