Re: SQL - multiple rows for same customer, but only want earliest one

Thanks for all of the replies!  I used a combination of Charles' and
Birgitta's solution.  (I needed to add Group By to Charles' sample.)

Richard, a different way to skin a cat, eh?  Only one row could ever be
returned, so not useful in my situation.  I'm curious though, under what
circumstances would FETCH FIRST ROW ONLY be "useful"?  Obviously, it works,
so somebody declared there would be a need, but I'm just trying to figure
out what that is.
