I've come up with the select below. Is there a better/more efficient way of doing this? select cp.cs_id, from cons_price_details cp, (select cs_id, min(cs_price) as cs_price from cons_price_details group by cs_id ) v where cp.cs_id = v.cs_id and cp.cs_price = v.cs_price; -- Gary Stainburn This email does not contain private or confidential material as it may be snooped on by interested government parties for unknown and undisclosed purposes - Regulation of Investigatory Powers Act, 2000 ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 3: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/docs/faq
