I have a dilemma that is driving me a little crazy...
I have records with ID numbers associated. The ID number can occur in the table multiple times and the Employee associated with that ID number could be different for each occurance of the ID number. What I want is the first employee associated with that ID number and that is it.
Example:
IDNum Employee
1234 John Smith
1234 Ann Jones
5678 Bobby James
5678 Joe Cool
Values Returned:
IDNum Employee
1234 John Smith
5678 Bobby James
The problem I am running into is the employee name is coming from one table, the IDNum is coming from another table and I have a third table that houses the employee phone number. In that regard I cannot do a simple "first" criteria.
