By their very nature aggregate functions require a group by. If you have no
group by, then the
entire recordset is the group and location_city would make no sense unless
your entire recordset has the same value
for location_city

Subject: Group by problem in select query
Is there a way around this error message? I am selecting 8 fields (one is a
count) and I do not want a group by clause. Without a group by clause or if
I leave one of the fields out of the group by clause, I receive this error
message:
Column 'location_city' is invalid in the select list because it is not
contained in an aggregate function and there is no GROUP BY clause.
