First thought would be something like:
SELECT TOP 10 COUNT(PRODUCTID) AS COUNTER, PRODUCTID
FROM ORDERDETAIL
GROUP BY PRODUCTID
ORDER BY COUNTER DESC
There may be something faster, but this works...

Subject: selecting top n records
I need to select the top selling products from a table of lineitems. Top
selling products would be those whose ID_PRODUCT shows up the most in the
ORDERS_LINEITEMS table.
Any clues from the SQL gurus out there?
