Merging Fields

Hi

I have a spreadsheet that I have brought into QlikView. It is part of a larger report but it is not affected by the other elements in that report. I want to be able to merge the 3 fields User1, User2 and User 3 to give me a list of users but I also want to be able to give a count of how many times that user has occurred.

My intention is to show this information in a table of some sort such as below:

UserPick Errors
Ryan3
Danny8
Brett3
Jacob6
Ian4

I have attached the qvw.

Daft question, have you got an Employees table? I can't open the QVW to see!

Hi Andy

Nope, I did wonder that, but then some of the things that you guys do in Qlikview has me baffled so I didn't question it.

@Hi Steve,

I've come to the conclusion that the only way to do this would be as per gwassenaar suggestion using a cross table load, however you may need to rename field to stop it interfering from you other data.

Thanks Andy

I have stopped it dropping a couple of the fields and done a distinct count on those and I am getting the numbers I am expecting.

Thank you for the help.
