I was creating the VIEW below and at this point it works just fine but I want to add another column to show it as a percentage of the toal amount

SELECT UserType, COUNT(*) AS TypeCount
FROM dbo.Ideas
WHERE (Approved = 'Y') AND (Refrence IS NOT NULL)
GROUP BY UserType

An example result set would look like the following

Customer 10 50%
Emplyee 10 50%

Thanks

Tom

[code]
SELECT UserType, COUNT(*) AS TypeCount, COUNT(*) * 100.0 / COUNT(*) OVER() AS Percentage
FROM dbo.Ideas
WHERE (Approved = 'Y') AND (Refrence IS NOT NULL)
GROUP BY UserType
[/code]

Oops sorry,
should be


COUNT(*) * 100.0 / SUM(COUNT(*)) OVER() AS Percentage
