This is probably very simple but I am drawing a blank. Do I need to
create a cursor to iterate through a table to grab the top 2 magazines
per category? Here is my table and some data . The results I need are
at the bottom. Any help would be greatly appreciated:
CREATE TABLE magazinecategory
(
magazinecategoryid smallint NOT NULL ,
magazineid smallint,
categoryid smallint
);
INSERT INTO magazinecategory(
magazinecategoryid, magazineid, categoryid)
VALUES (1, 2, 3);
INSERT INTO magazinecategory(
magazinecategoryid, magazineid, categoryid)
VALUES (2, 8, 3);
INSERT INTO magazinecategory(
magazinecategoryid, magazineid, categoryid)
VALUES (3 9, 3);
INSERT INTO magazinecategory(
magazinecategoryid, magazineid, categoryid)
VALUES (4, 10, 4);
INSERT INTO magazinecategory(
magazinecategoryid, magazineid, categoryid)
VALUES (5, 11, 4);
INSERT INTO magazinecategory(
magazinecategoryid, magazineid, categoryid)
VALUES (6, 12,4);
The results I want are
CategoryID MagazineID
3 2
3 8
4 10
4 11
