I have one table "patients"...one row per patient.
Patient.ID, Patient.Name, Patient.address, Patient.gender
1/Jim/123 elm/M
I have another table of patient diagnosis codes. It can have multiple dx codes per patient.
dx.patientid/dx.dxcode/dx.dxcodedesc
1/23/diabetes 1/35/chf 2/33/pnem 2/34/stroke 2/56/headache
I need to bring back in a table unique patients where dxcode = 23 or 34.
one patient can have 23 and 34..I just need to bring back whether they had one or the other. If I do a left outer join, a patient with 23 and 34 will bring back two entries. How do I have it bring back just one unique entry? Thanks

If you setup schema and data, we'll be able to provide you actual code, but in the meantime, psuedocode will have to do:
SELECT mt.ID, MAX( c.dxCode) FROM MainTable AS mt JOIN dxcodes AS c ON mt.Id = c.Id GROUP BY mt.ID

Left outer join !! Can you please post your query with expected output.

this is basically the code...this join... left join UserView.vwEncounterDiagnosis d on d.VisitId=a.VisitId...will give me multiple rows per patient
i might need help with the diagnosis order/code statements in the where code as well?
select a.EncounterKey,a.DivisionName, a.VisitId,a.MedicalRecordNumber,a.InOutIndicator,a.EDFlag,a.AgeYear,a.PatientGender, a.ChargeTotal,pa.City,pa.State,a.PatientZip
from UserView.vwAccount a left join UserView.vwPayer p on p.PayerPlanKey = a.PayerPrimaryKey left join UserView.vwPatient pa on pa.PatientKey=a.PatientKey left join UserView.vwEncounterDiagnosis d on d.VisitId=a.VisitId
where a.DischargeDate>= '2011-01-01' and a.DischargeDate<='2012-01-01' and p.PayerClassGroupName in ('blue cross','true blue') and a.ChargeTotal>0 and ((d.DiagnosisOrder between '1' and '4' and d.DiagnosisCode between '140.0' and '239.99') or (d.DiagnosisOrder between '1' and '4' and d.DiagnosisCode between 'v10.00' and 'v10.99') or (d.DiagnosisOrder between '1' and '4' and d.DiagnosisCode between 'v76.0' and 'v76.99') or (d.DiagnosisOrder between '1' and '4' and d.DiagnosisCode in ('v66.1','v66.2','v67.1','v67.2','v58.42')))

Did you try the pseudo code posted by Kraig ? or try with DISTINCT.

If you're not going to be able to extrapolate from psuedocode, we're going to need a lot more details from you to provide you a working example.
Please see the first link in my signature for what we'll require to properly setup working code for your example and to show you exactly what you'll need to do. This includes schema for test structures, sample data, and expected results from that data, in a format we can cut and paste into our own servers and after review run scripts against what they create.

| thank you for your responses and link. I'll remember that for future questions I might have. They pseudo code worked fine..thanks for the advice.

You could also solve this using EXISTS.
select p.* from partients p where exists(select * from dx where dx.patiendid=p.partientid and dx.dxcode in (23,24)) I'm not sure if this approach will perform better than Evil Craig F's solution so you need to test it. At least the there is no aggregation steps in my approach.
