I have a table with the following data in it
NUMBER EFFECTIVE_DATE
001 1/15/1990 12:00AM
001 1/15/1993 12:00AM
001 1/15/1996 12:00AM
001 1/15/2001 12:00AM
002 4/1/1996 12:00AM
002 4/1/2001 12:00AM
I need to be able to select the record for each number with the earliest date.
My data has to look like
NUMBER EFFECTIVE_DATE
001 1/15/1993 12:00AM
002 4/1/1996 12:00AM
I've tried the Min function, the least function with several SQL statements.
nothing seems to be working correctly
can someone help
