## What it does
**SQL Query Description**
=====================================
### Purpose
This SQL query retrieves a distinct set of rows from the `PunchPress` table, ordered by the `Die Number` column.
### Parameters
* The query uses only one table: `PunchPress`.
### Select Statement
----------------------
The query selects the following columns:
* `PunchPress.[Die Number]`: Retrieves the unique die number for each row.
* `PunchPress.IEDescription`: Retrieves the description of the I.E. (Inspection Equipment) used in the punch press.
* `PunchPress.Location`: Retrieves the location where the punch press is installed or operated.
* `PunchPress.Machine`: Retrieves the type of machine associated with the punch press.
* `PunchPress.[Safety Device]`: Retrieves the safety device(s) used in the punch press.
* `PunchPress.Comment`: Retrieves any additional comments about the punch press.
* `PunchPress.[Forming Die]` and `PunchPress.[Changeover Die]`: Retrieves information about the forming die and changeover die.
### Grouping and Aggregation
---------------------------
The `SELECT DISTINCTROW` statement is used to eliminate duplicate rows, ensuring that each row contains only one unique set of values for the selected columns.
### Order By Clause
----------------------
After selecting the desired columns, the query orders the results by the `Die Number` column in ascending order (`ORDER BY PunchPress.[Die Number]`). This ensures that the results are displayed in a logical and consistent sequence.
### Example Output
The resulting output will be a table containing distinct rows, ordered by the `Die Number`, with the specified columns. For example:
| Die Number | IEDescription | Location | Machine | Safety Device | Comment | Forming Die | Changeover Die |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
Each row represents a unique set of punch press configurations, sorted by die number for easy reference and management.
