If you add "MyValue" to the select list, sql needs to know which "MyValue" value to return when there are duplicates in the ID field. Example: Table ID | MyValue 5 | goat 5 | bird Query: select ID,MyValue from table group by ID Results: ID | MyValue 5 | ??? (goat or bird) If you don't care which value is returned, just add a Max or Min to MyValue and you're done. select ID,Max(MyValue) as MyValue from table group by ID -Daniel Elmore -----Original Message----- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] On Behalf Of Ron Mast Sent: Wednesday, March 15, 2006 10:05 AM To: Dallas/Fort Worth ColdFusion User Group Mailing List Subject: [DFW CFUG] query group by question Hi All, I have a query and I'm grouping by 2 fields and the query dumps no problem with those 2 fields in the SELECT statement, but when I try and add a field to the SELECT statement I get the following error: Error Diagnostic Information ODBC Error Code = S1000 (General error) [IBM][Client Access Express ODBC Driver (32-bit)][DB2/400 SQL]SQL0122 - Column CPARTW or expression in SELECT list not valid.
