LIMIT is non-Standard...

Try FETCH FIRST ROW ONLY

note: alternate syntax
FETCH FIRST 1 ROW ONLY
FETCH FIRST 10 ROWS ONLY

I have a SELECT statement that returns more than 1 record for a invoice. The
file can have 1 to many invoice records with the same invoice number.



I need a way to limit the select, to read only one of those invoice records.



There is a solution using LIMIT, but I cannot get that to work.



Example:



Select * from table1 T1 where T1.INVOICE in

(Select T2.Invoice from table2 T2 where T1.Invoice = T2.invoice LIMIT 1)



TIA
