>> Hello everyone,
>>
>> I am using CakePHP to build an application that will run on en
>> existing database. The problem I am facing is simple, I have products
>> table and let's say it is like this: id, name, supplier
>>
>> Some stupid programmer (yes I am angry to him) didn't created the
>> table with supplier_id. So every time a product is being added
>> supplier field must be entered manually. This is not my problem. What
>> I want to do is to retrieve all the unique supplier names.
>
>
> - To get unique suppliers, run query, SELECT DISTINCT supplier FROM
> products
>
- Or using cake, $this->Production->find('all', array('fields' => 'DISTINCT
supplier'));

>>
>> I tried:
>>
>> $this->Product->find(
>> 'all',
>> array(
>> 'fields' => array('Product.supplier'),
>> 'group' => 'Product.supplier'
>> )
>> );
>>
>> It does not work. When I query the database manually using "SELECT
>> supplier FROM table GROUP BY supplier" it works.
>>
>> Thank you very much for your answers.
