I have tried looking this up and couldn't find a straightforward
answer:
I just want to find DISTINCT records on one column, but pick the most
recent one (a date in another column).
table:
id | price | date_entered
1, 5, 2005
1, 6, 2004
2, 3, 2004
I can get DISTINCT records on the product id (I use GROUP BY,
actually), but it displays the 2004 record. I want the most recent
record for any distinct product...
my query:
SELECT * FROM `products` GROUP BY `id`
How do I modify this to get GROUP BY to order by date_entered DESC?
I also had a SELECT DISTINCT (id) ... query but couldn't get all the
data to return...
Thanks!
Sal

I have two tables, both containing an 'authors' column. Is there a way
to get a unique list of authors from the two tables?
I tried SELECT DISTINCT `authors` from `table1`, `table2`;
but I got an "Column 'authors' in field list is ambiguous" error.
Is there also a query to return only the count of distinct authors from
the two tables?
Thanks for any help.

I cannot get Netscape 4.79 to properly display the ordered list in the
following fragment.
<P>Get a specific portion of the date.
Depending upon the value of index:
<ol start=0>
<li>complete value, usually as a <code>String</code>, or if
an integral value as an <code>Integer</code>.
<li>year as an <code>Integer</code>
<li>month number as an <code>Integer</code>

In Microsoft's help literature, it states:
"You can filter out non-unique rows by using the DISTINCT option of an
aggregate function"
I am trying to do this in Access 2003 with the COUNT aggregate
function, but there is no reference, at least that I can find anywhere,
of how to do this. I have multiple lines fields for which I would like
to do a "count distinct", but for simplicity, I am showing an example
of only one field. Here is...

I'm wondernig if it's possible to do the following:
I'd like to average every 2 numeric values in a table as they appear
sequentially ordered by their time stamps. I was thinking the only way
to do this is to create another column in the table that is populated
with sequential numbers that increase by 1 every two values like so:
1
1
2

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not.
