>Hi:
>
>I have a table:
>ROOM_NO (int) ... SINGER_NO (int) ... SONG_NO (char)
>
>The entire table usually looks like this:
>ROOM_NO ... SINGER_NO ... SONG_NO
>3 ...................... 1 ........................ 24
>1 ...................... 2 ........................ 25
>1 ...................... 3 ........................ 30
>2 ...................... 3 ........................ 41
>1 ...................... 3 ........................ 23
>2 ...................... 2 ........................ 20
>2 ...................... 3 ........................ 99
>2 ...................... 3 ........................ 42
>1 ...................... 1 ........................ 36
>1 ...................... 5 ........................ 23
>3 ...................... 4 ........................ 20
>2 ...................... 6 ........................ 1
>
>Using a WHERE on the Room_No and getting ONE unique set of consecutive Singer_No in Singer_No ORDER. The following is the result I'm looking for.
>ROOM_NO ... SINGER_NO ... SONG_NO
>1 ...................... 1 ........................ 36
>1 ...................... 2 ........................ 25
>1 ...................... 3 ........................ 30
>1 ...................... 5 ........................ 30
>
>Although Singer_No 1 and 3 are in the table more than once for Room_No 1, I need the first occurance of the singer number only.

>At first it seemed simple, but I got nowhere :o(
