Hi,
I have a table which contain the data as follows,
ID first * sec GroupID vid 1 1 2 16 122 3 2 1 16 122 2 3 1 8 33 4 1 5 16 12 5 1 6 16 1
Here I want to get the minimum of the multiples of the column's(first&sec) that should be grouped with GroupID.For example the result will be
ID first sec GroupID vid
1 2 2 16 122
2 3 1 8 33
Can any one help me out of this?It is very urgent...
Regards
Varun R

Hi Varun,
please go through this code. i hope this helps you to get the answers..
SELECT a3.* FROM (SELECT a.GroupID, MIN(MULTICOLUMN)MULTICOLUMN FROM (SELECT ID, [FIRST] * SEC MULTICOLUMN, GROUPID FROM SAMPLE_TEST)a JOIN SAMPLE_TEST b On a.ID = b.ID GROUP BY a.GroupID ) a1 JOIN (SELECT ID, [FIRST] * SEC MULTICOLUMN, GROUPID FROM SAMPLE_TEST) a2 On a1.GroupID = a2.GroupID AND a1.MULTICOLUMN = a2.MULTICOLUMN JOIN SAMPLE_TEST a3 On a2.ID = a3.ID
Ini your sample, for the ID value 1 & 3 belongs to same groupID "16" and the multiple for Column first&sec is same. so you would be getting 2 rows for the same groupID 16.
If the query has to be changed bit, let me know i can help you in getting the result.
All the best, Vijay Vasudevan

There are many different ways to write a query to do this, here's a popular one:
DECLARE @SampleData TABLE ( id INTEGER NOT NULL, first INTEGER NOT NULL, sec INTEGER NOT NULL, group_id INTEGER NOT NULL, vid INTEGER NOT NULL, PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED (id) );
INSERT @SampleData VALUES (1, 1, 2, 16, 122), (3, 2, 1, 16, 122), (2, 3, 1, 08, 033), (4, 1, 5, 16, 012), (5, 1, 6, 16, 001);
SELECT * FROM ( SELECT *, row_num = ROW_NUMBER() OVER ( PARTITION BY S.group_id ORDER BY S.first * S.sec ASC) FROM @SampleData S ) S WHERE S.row_num = 1;

But my favourite would probably be this:
DECLARE @SampleData TABLE ( id INTEGER NOT NULL, first INTEGER NOT NULL, sec INTEGER NOT NULL, group_id INTEGER NOT NULL, vid INTEGER NOT NULL, computed AS ISNULL(first * sec, 0) PRIMARY KEY CLUSTERED (id) );
INSERT @SampleData VALUES (1, 1, 2, 16, 122), (3, 2, 1, 16, 122), (2, 3, 1, 08, 033), (4, 1, 5, 16, 012), (5, 1, 6, 16, 001);
SELECT S.id, S.group_id, S.computed FROM @SampleData S WHERE S.computed = ( SELECT MIN(S2.computed) FROM @SampleData S2 WHERE S2.group_id = S.group_id );
The computed column in the sample table is required to make this work best, but it does not need to be persisted or indexed, so it only really exists in the metadata.
This is a workaround for a limitation in the query optimiser, which might not be necessary in future versions.
One benefit of the computed column (aside from needing no storage space) is that you can create statistics on it. Or at least you could on a real table - the table variable I used for the demo does not support statistics.
