Good point, Sean. I am going to have to think about that one. I don't think there would be 2 or more proc dates with the same DayKey, but I do have to think about it. It would probably have to be counted as a failure, rather than processed for that, though. I probably should have provided some DDL, etc. At first, I was just trying to find the old and new syntax.Thank you.
Doesn't the last query I posted using top 1 produce the same output? That would be better because it only has to hit the table once, and it is way easier to decipher.
