hmm
well I'll set the connection etc. aside for a minute and give you a example of the SQL statement. it will actually be easier then it sounds,
<%
SQLtxt = "SELECT COUNT(*) FROM tablename WHERE AssetType = 'Server'"
conn.execute(SQLtxt)
%>
that's it, the same with the other field
this with the table you have above will output a value of 2
A language that doesn't affect the way you think about programming is not worth knowing.

Heres one that should return all of the information grouped similar to what you had above:
SQLtxt = "SELECT COUNT(Name) as numEntries, AssetType FROM tablename GROUP BY AssetType ORDER BY AssetType"
That will return a recordset that looks like:
2 Monitor
2 Server
etc...
