| hi,i need to get a list of distinct cities from a database and an ID.Though each record has it's own ID, any ID correcsponding to that city will do...i tried this:SELECT distinct city FROM tblEvent ORDER BY city which gives me the locations as needed, but when I add the ID to the query it gives me everything (not just the distinct locs)SELECT distinct city , id FROM tblEvent ORDER BY city how can i get distinct cities out of the database, but only have 1 corresponding ID with it?Thanks! |
