Question : Need a SQL query

2 tables: userfile & rcvfile

need a query to create a list of distinct users that are authorized to receive materials, how many times they have received materials and the last date they received materials

userfile
userid
authorized (list of authorized actions for userid separated by a tilde (~), RECEIVER means they can receive materials)

rcvfile
receiveperson (matches userid above)
receiptdate

I believe that is all you should need. I have thus far:

SELECT userid FROM userfile
WHERE authorized LIKE '%RECEIVER%'

Thanks in advance.

SELECT u.userid, COUNT(r.rcvfile), MAX(r.receiptdate)
FROM userfile u
left join rcvfile r on r.receiveperson = u.userid
WHERE u.authorized LIKE '%RECEIVER%'
group by u.userid
