Wouldn't this work: select distinct(email), "Full Name" from Your_Table?
-Dov -----Original Message----- From: James Smith [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Monday, November 22, 2004 8:56 AM To: CF-Talk Subject: Modification of a distinct query What is the simplest way (preferably without multiple queries) of selecting a single instance of an email address even if multiple different names are attached. Let me give you an example... DATA ---- Email Full Name ---------------------- --------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] James Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] Jay Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] James Smith QUERY RESULTS ------------- Email Full Name ---------------------- --------- [EMAIL PROTECTED] James Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] James Smith I don't care which of the two "[EMAIL PROTECTED]" results comes out, I just require one of them. Obviously I can't use DISTINCT because the two results would be distinct because of the different full name. -- James Smith [EMAIL PROTECTED] ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Special thanks to the CF Community Suite Gold Sponsor - CFHosting.net http://www.cfhosting.net Message: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=i:4:184992 Archives: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/threads.cfm/4 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/lists.cfm/link=s:4 Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.4 Donations & Support: http://www.houseoffusion.com/tiny.cfm/54
