I'm having trouble visualizing what you're describing. Can you provide a sample table (create table script) and a sample insert command, to create the data you're describing? Just...

Is it running in a different database than the others? I don't mean msdb, I mean the database it does its work in.

Do a select that joins the two tables on the class_id column, and with a Where clause that eliminated the null rows that you don't want. Does that get...

The left join usually is the best way to handle that. It can also help in some cases to pull the data into a temp table, and then left...

Substring and Charindex can do that pretty well. But first, what do you want to do if the name is "James W Smith", or "Morgan Mac Donald"? Do...

If it's giving multiple result sets, it's got multiple selects.
Go ahead and post the script. That'll definitely help.

The only way to force the sequence is to make them separate queries. That doesn't mean a CTE or derived table, it means a table variable or temp table....
