Count Key values from one table, but not all tables

I would like to count the number of distinct key value (AccountID) on one table (TableA), but not count the key values on another table (TableB).  I have attached a QVW to illustrate.  In TableA, there are 4 distinct AccountIDs, but when using count distinct, it returns 8, which is the distinct count across all tables that have an AccountID column.  I would like to retreive the distinct count from only TableA.  Any ideas?

Thanks!

put a flag in each table with value of 1 and sum the appropriate in the UI.

so in the set analysis put flag=1 for the appropriate table when counting

both table are concatented into one table Holding all values. so 8 is the correct answer.

if you Need two table you have to define for table b

Table B

noconcatenate load  ...

but then you have the same field in two tables and the result will be the same.

to get only the values of table A you need to gibt AccountID a different Name than

in TableB!

TableA:
AccountID1

..

TableB:
AcountID2,

...

What is the Business issue? The current example makes no sense.
