Very informative,
Thank you Richard.
I will have to flag this one and come back to it.
My database structure may require something of this measure down the
line
with the auditing ability I plan on building into the admin section.
Never heard of USE AdventureWorks. Is that a SQL system function?
Or just a table in the examples database?

USE AdventureWorks;

SELECT ManagerID, COUNT(*)
FROM HumanResources.Employee AS e
WHERE ManagerID IS NOT NULL
GROUP BY ManagerID

SELECT ManagerID, DirectReports
FROM DirReps
ORDER BY ManagerID;
GO
Guess I will have to do some googling.. :)
Thanks again.
Best,
