I have a table which has Dealer Name and Dealer codes.
I want to list only the dealer codes which don’t have the code as 'ES'
When I ran the below query I am able to receive the dealer codes with ES also.
SELECT .Dealer_name, Dealer_code
FROM Dealer_table
WHERE dealer_code <> 'ES' ;
Please guide me.
Thanks in advance |

Check the dealer code if it has appended spaces. example "ES ".
Try to use STRIP function. |

Dealer_code char(2) not null
No, there can be many dealer codes for each row
Same there can be many dealer names for each row
Each code has each dealer names |

How about cut&paste with code tags your sql and a short part of the results.
I do not understand the period before your first column name after SELECT. |

| What about the word "results" is confusing to you? |

Results
APAMETALSS AP
NSABOARDSS NA
MASCONSBLE MA
There are 10 records in the file and out of that I received these 3 records which don’t have ES as dealer code.
But when I check the dealer name APAMETALSS this has the ES dealer code,
I want only 2 records to be displayed which don’t have ES dealer codes |

Hello,
Well, i'm certainly confused. . .

I see no ES in the result below.
How many rows have APAMETALSS as the dealer name? |

Looks like you have duplicate rows for Dealer_name but with different dealer_code.
Try this untested...
| Code: |
WITH FIRST_PASS AS
(
SELECT SELECT Dealer_name
FROM Dealer_table
WHERE Dealer_code = 'ES'
)
, FINAL_PASS AS
(
SELECT DT1.Dealer_name, DT1.Dealer_code
FROM Dealer_table DT1 LEFT OUTER JOIN
FIRST_PASS FP
ON DT1.Dealer_name = FP.Dealer_name
WHERE FP.Dealer_name IS NULL
)
SELECT * FROM FINAL_PASS; |
Thanks, |

Dick, I got confused when I saw this from sivasaras:
| Quote: |
No, there can be many dealer codes for each row
Same there can be many dealer names for each row
Each code has each dealer names
|
Somebody does not understand what a row is, or somebody does not understand what "relational" means, or the data base is not defined as we have been told, or .... hence, CONFUSION! |

If your table contains:
| Code: |
APAMETALSS AP
APAMETALSS ES
NSABOARDSS NA
MASCONSBLE MA |
and your query is:
| Code: |
SELECT Dealer_name, Dealer_code
FROM Dealer_table
WHERE Dealer_code <> 'ES' ; |
then you've got what you deserve...
To get what you want, you can use:
| Code: |
SELECT M.Dealer_name, M.Dealer_code
FROM Dealer_table M
WHERE M.Dealer_name NOT IN (SELECT S.Dealer_name FROM Dealer_table S WHERE S.Dealer_code = 'ES'); |

Do you want fast incorrect results or correct results? |

| Hey, if the results don't have to be correct, you can very close to zero resource usage. |
