Hi there and happy easter

Now, here's my problem:

Iam using a sp that needs to select the top 1 count from +/- 15 columns in 1 table.

example:
select
(select top 1 TABLE2.Name from TABLE1 join TABLE2 on TABLE1.nameID = TABLE2.id
where *some conditions that are on all the selects the same* group by TABLE2.Name order by count(*) desc),
(select....)

So I have this sub select about 15 times only with some different columnnames and tables.

This is pretty hard work for my server and voila, there is the question: Is there a better, less expensive, way...

Thanks
Bjorn
