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.[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.
