RE: select distinct question

 

  

I'm curious, would you not also need the TRUNC statement here as well?

where DATE_CREATED not in
(select TRUNC(DATE_CREATED) from CLAIM_DRIVER_STEPS-cpedev);

Try the following query with TRUNC.
TRUNC will remove the time stamp.

select distinct TRUNC(CLAIM_DRIVER_STEPS.DATE_CREATED) from
CLAIM_DRIVER_STEPS
where DATE_CREATED not in (select DATE_CREATED from
CLAIM_DRIVER_STEPS-cpedev);

Expand the date out with to_char(). I bet the time portion differs.

Anyone know why this select distinct returns multiple rows with the same
value? Thanks so much! (the "-" is actually an "@" for a dblink.

SQL> select distinct CLAIM_DRIVER_STEPS.DATE_CREATED from
SQL> CLAIM_DRIVER_STEPS
where DATE_CREATED not in (select DATE_CREATED from
CLAIM_DRIVER_STEPS-cpedev);

DATE_CREA
---------
23-SEP-04
23-SEP-04

2 rows selected.
