Using TOP To Select The 2nd Highest Record
Jun 19, 2007
Hai frendz,
I am having a table named Employee(int EID, float Salary)...
Now I want to select the highest salary in the table and the query is-
"select top 1 EID, Salary from Employee ORDER BY Salary DESC"
Now I need to write a query which selects the second highest salary.
So how to achieve this?..
thanx

I have a query which finds duplicate spec_items linked to a work order. What I want to do it remove the duplicates (and in some cases there will be more than one) leaving only the record with the highest [sr.id]
select sr.id, sr.linked_to_worknumber, sr.spec_checklist_id from spec_checklist_remind sr inner join spec_checklist_remind sc on sc.linked_to_worknumber = sr.linked_to_worknumber
group by sr.id,sr.linked_to_worknumber, sr.spec_checklist_id
Having sr.spec_checklist_id = 30 and count(*)>1
order by sr.linked_to_worknumber
Sample of query results:
idlinked_to_worknumberspec_checklist_id
18323IP-DN-03377430
24229IP-DN-03377430
18294IP-DN-03380830
28027IP-DN-03380830
18295IP-DN-03381030
19924IP-DN-03381030
In the 3 cases, I would want to retain only records with ids 24229,28027 and 19924.

Hello,
I have the following problem.
I have three Columns
name / version / package
I want to create a select query, that shows me all names and their actuall package. The actual Package is the record with the highest version number.
For Example my Database has the following entries :
name / version / package
name1 / 1 / package1
name2 / 1 / package1
name2 / 2 / package3
name3 / 1 / package2
The output should look like this :
name1 / 1 / package1
name2 / 2 / package3
name3 / 1 / package2
Has anyone a idea and can help me ?
Thanks in Advance

Hi all,
Hopefully you can assist this pleb (me) with some (hopefully) basic scripting.
I have a table which has bucket loads of rows in it (funnily enough)
Field1 & Field2
Field1 is repeated numerous times (but also has differing values) through the table
Field2 is a numeric value which is assigned to the Field1
What I need to do is pull back all the unique Field1's but only those with the highest value in Field2
Example:
Field1 Field2
blah 100
blah 400
blah1 12
blah1 9
blah1 2
blah 350
I need the return to be basically:
Field1 Field2
blah 400
blah1 12
I am sure that this has to be straight forward - however my brain just isn't connected the right way at the moment....
Thanks in advance for any assistance on this.

I have a stored proc which evaluates a table of 'tasks' to return the task with the highest priority for a given user - at the same time, once that task has been found - I want to allocate that user to the task.
I have created a stored proc that works...however I'm sure this requirement /pattern is common & I would like some best practice for this pattern of update and select within a transaction.
Here is some sample data:
use tempdb;
go
if OBJECT_ID('Tasks', 'U') is not null
drop table tasks;
go
create table tasks (
TaskId int identity primary key,
[Code] ....
And here's what my current stored proc looks like;
if OBJECT_ID('pGetNextTask', 'P') is not null
drop proc pGetNextTask;
go
create proc pGetNextTask (
@UserID char(10),
@TaskID int output
)
[Code] ....

Hi
Here is my example: I have the following table
ID Name Phone
--- ---- -----
1 John 1234567
1 John H.
2 Dave 9876543
2 Dave Smith
I want to select only one record of each ID, the output should be
ID Name Phone
--- ---- -----
1 John 1234567
2 Dave 9876543
It doesn't matter which record to select, but I need just a single complete record. I can't use select distinct ID because it will not show the other fieldnames.
Thanks

I have a sql query that looks for values in a few different databases....
is there a way to select the last record in the table b/c I am pulling the hours worked on jobs and one person may have 3 job titles but i want it to show the balance of hours under the most recent job... Instead all the jobs are showing the same value even though only one of them had those hours under it. I think a way to get around this is to select the last value b/c that is under the job title most recently worked and they are in order by timesheets which can be ordered by date...any ideas?

The developers of frond end ask to select only one row from one table, but many times, such as 10. That means the output has 10 rows and same.
Any suggestion will be appreciated.

Every hour we capture some values from our factory (position of pumps, valves, ...) in our sql server 2000 db.
Normally 1 record is added to the db.
00:00:00
01:00:00
02:00:00
...
21:00:00
22:00:00
23:00:00
All of these values are displayed in an Excel sheet. One sheet contains all the data from one month.
I noticed a problem last week when 2 records were added: first one at 19:00:00 and the second one at 19:00:01
We only want to keep the most recent record (19:00:01) in a situation like this but I can't seem to work out an SQL-statement :o
This is what we have know. It used to work fine untill we had 2 record being added instead of one.
SELECT TimeOfCapture, Value1, Value2, Value3
FROM FactoryTable
WHERE (MONTH(TimeOfCapture) = MONTH(GETDATE())) AND (YEAR(TimeOfCapture) = YEAR(GETDATE()))

Header H, Details D
WHERE H.HeaderID = D.DetailsID
AND D.DetailsID IN (SELECT TOP 2 DetailsID FROM Details WHERE HeaderID = H.HeaderID)

im trying to get the earliest record. data is below
note_id/ doc_received_date/ bankruptcy_date/ sp_recorded_date
2332/ 20090106<---- / 20081219/ 20090106
2332/ 20090323/ 20081219/ 20090323
2332/ 20090413/ 20081219/ 20090413
2332/ 20090507/ 20081219/ 20090507
because the bankruptcy_date date are all equal i would need to pull one record with the earliest date from the doc_received_date. The date with the arrow is the record i want. So basically i would like to show this result
note_id/ doc_received_date/ bankruptcy_date/ sp_recorded_date
2332 20090106 20081219 20090106

I am wondering how to select the Max date within a table where a timestamp is within 2 second of the other
IDTimestamp
1NULL
209/17/2012 11:04:32
309/17/2012 11:05:44
409/17/2012 11:05:45
So I need a query to return
IDTimestamp
409/17/2012 11:05:45
as 11:05:45 is the max of 09/17/2012 11:05:44 and 09/17/2012 11:05:45 and they are within 2 seconds of eachother.

Hi there, it has been a while since i have posted. I am in asituation where I am stumped. I am learning to build a dts packagewhere I am connecting to a table in an AS400. This database is beingmaintained by an outsourced company and therefore I can't change thetable structure or even ask them to. Anyway, this table currently hasabout 104,000 records. I am building a package to check it and pullout the most recent records and put them where they go in my SQLServer 2000 tables. The only way I can think of to get the mostrecent records is to use a global variable in the package to rememberthe record count and then get those records from that record positionon. Problem is, I have no idea how I would go about selecting recordsfrom a record position. Does anybody have any ideas or should I beusing a different approach? There are no time stamps to work from. Iwas told that the AS400 records, including updates, are appended tothe table, which is why I thought this approach made sense. I wouldtruly appreciate any help.
