All,

I have what will hopefully be an easy question.

I have a DB with two columns ID and Qty.

I am trying to figure out how to select the 3 ID (or however many) that
have the largest Qty. For instance if this is my table:

1    43
2    6
3    55
4    645
5    2
6    78
7    32
8    30
9    45
10   90

then the results would return:

4
10
6



Please help!
