Elain,
The query is returning the correct data. DISTINCT applies to the row as a
whole. Since the NAME adds a new element, DISTINCT finds that 1MIKEY is
different than 1JOEY.
How do you determine the 'first' row of the testid? Depending upon the
access path (table/index), this could be a
Try this (in 8i or above):
select * from (
select
testid,
name,
status,
rank() over(
partition by testid
order by rownum
) dup_rank
from testing
)
where dup_rank = 1

Daniel,
I need only 1 row for each testid, name,status combination. I can do a
distinct on testid but I need the name and status to be displayed as well.
thanks.
