I have a different result:

--Assuming that I have the following values in the TimeGroup table (value1, value2, value3, value4), what does this query return?

CREATE TABLE #TimeGroup(column1 VARCHAR(50),column2 VARCHAR(50),column3 VARCHAR(50),column4 VARCHAR(50))

INSERT INTO #TimeGroup(column1, column2,column3, column4) VALUES('value1','value2','value3','value4')

if 'Value1' < any ( select column1 from #TimeGROUP ) select 1 else select 0

DROP TABLE #TimeGroup
