I think many of you may be able to give me a quick answer. I have a 
table where I need to load and combine rows with like item numbers 
and total the qty associated with each. The problem is I need 
information from each row in the table that is not unique along with 
the invitem feild and totaled qty. So I am not able to include these 
fields in a select statement with group by clause.
What is the easiest way to retrieve the addtional feilds for each 
item.

example of similar data
  Qty    Item   desc     order number   random comment
   10    ABC    Widget     10145           hello
   20    ABC    Widget     10149           big test
   15    ABC    Widget     10150           Hello
   10    DEF    pencil     12312           need many
    5    DEF    pencil     11233           need 1  

I would need to total qty for each item and retrieve the other 
fields into a single datagrid row for each item. I know I can 
combine them with code after they are retrieved but wanted to do it 
with a SQL statement if possible.

current statment below but does not goup by invitem because of a few 
non unique feilds

select line_num,qty,sum(qty) as 
bqty ,qtys,invitem,invdesc,cost,order_lines.cf,total,inventory.packin
g,material,iteml,width,height,order_lines.vendor,newreqqty,newreqcf,o
rder_num
  from Order_lines,inventory 
where (order_num='200575293' or order_num='200575294' or 
order_num='200575295' or order_num='200575296') 
and invitem=inventory.num group by invitem ,qty,linenum, 
qtys,invitem,invdesc,cost,order_lines.cf,total,inventory.packing,mate
rial,iteml,width,height,order_lines.vendor,newreqqty,newreqcf,order_n
um

Thanks for any help.
