    Count of specific Word index

    • Article Type: General
    • Product: Aleph

    Description:
    I know that I can get a count of how many values are in a specific browse index by looking at the first characters of z01_rec_key. Is there a way to do a similar thing with the Word indexes?

    We added a couple of new indexes recently, and I would like to know how many records relate to each of these specific indexes. Is there a way, using SQL, to check to see this information?

    Resolution:
    The Z98-FIELD-NUMBER field number (the first 3 bytes of the z98_rec_key) contains the Word index number.
    For example, if you have a "WAD" Word index 048 defined like this in tab00.eng:

    H WAD W-048 01 00 00 Audience

    then, you can use the following SQL to see how many entries there are in the Z98 for this WAD index:

    SQL> select count(*) from z98 where z98_rec_key like '048%';
