Hey ...

How do you do a query where all rows returned except in the case of
duplicates, based on a name column, in which only the first is returned.

So the query run against the following rows:

Name    OrderNum
Fred        21
Beth        36
Fred        76

Would return :
Name    OrderNum
Fred         21
Beth         36

Much thanks!!
