I need to count the number of like responses for multiple fields.

I have two tables. One with questions and one with personal data. They are
joined by ptid.

I created a report which is grouped by Location. I now need to count the
number of times for each location a specific answer was given ex.
"Very Good" = 2
"Good" = 95
"Poor" = 12 etc.

I would appreciate any help.

I have created a count for each "location" and have tried multiple things
like =Count(IIf([2]='Good',1,Null)) however this returns "data type mismatch
in critiera expression"

I am somewhat new and not sure how to proceed.

Is '2' the name of a field? It seems so in your expression above.
Need input!
What is the field name that has your locations?
What is the name of the field that has the responses?

The table is Questions, field names are [1] [2] [3] ... [12], all fields
reference drop down menus containing Very Good, Good, Average, etc.

I have another table that contains ptdata, location, lengthofstay,
dischargedate.

I created a query that allows you to enter a date range. I created a report
which groups by location and gives a total count by location but I need to
know how many Very Goods, Goods, etc per location.
