sql server 2008 - Query for only one client entry a day -


i have table definition this:

create table [dbo].[contact] (     clientnumber [numeric] (20, 0) null,     contactdate [date] null,     name [text] null,     additionalinformation [text] null ) 

this table filled information single month. each client may have multiple entries single day. meaning there might entries this:

42  2015-12-09  felix       called today 42  2015-12-09  fexclicx    ... 

my goal client results table condition there should 1 entry day per client number. not care of (here) 2 entries displayed, top 1.

so far tried achive distinct:

select distinct clientnumber, contactdate, * contact 

unfortunately not limit results show client entry specific date once. still appear.

how achive getting entries 1 entry 1 client per day?

i suggest edit table, has id column ( set primary key). if so, can use query i've posted.

i don't know how desire information group by, can't aggregate text columns.

create table [dbo].[#contact] (     id int identity(1,1),     clientnumber [numeric] (20, 0) null,     contactdate [date] null,     name [text] null,     additionalinformation [text] null )   declare @date datetime set @date = getdate() insert #contact values (1,@date,'first client','info 1') go declare @date datetime set @date = getdate() set @date = dateadd(day,rand()*100,@date) insert #contact values (1,@date,'first client','info 2') go declare @date datetime set @date = getdate() set @date = dateadd(day,rand()*100,@date) print @date insert #contact values (2,@date,'2nd client','info 1') go declare @date datetime set @date = getdate() set @date = dateadd(day,rand()*100,@date) insert #contact values (2,@date,'2nd client','info 2') go declare @date datetime set @date = getdate() set @date = dateadd(day,rand()*100,@date) insert #contact values (2,@date,'2nd client','info 3') go declare @date datetime set @date = getdate() set @date = dateadd(day,rand()*100,@date) insert #contact values (3,@date,'3rd client','info 1')        select * #contact  c1 join (       select clientnumber, max(id) maxid       #contact       group clientnumber ) c2 on  c1.clientnumber = c2.clientnumber , c1.id = c2.maxid
