I have the final part of my report to complete. Yesterday I posted the most confusing set of threads ever on a public forum. So to cut the confusion, I am starting this thread again as now I know exactly what I need.

I have two tables each of which have a function that gathers data from them based around a set of parameters. This is then manipulated by a third function and the results of which are passed into a Stored Procedure. Here is the T-SQL syntax used for the SP;

SELECT fnWTRalldataReport.Areacode, fnWTRalldataReport.siteref, fnWTRalldataReport.estatename, fnWTRalldataReport.Securitised,

fnWTRalldataReport.unitref, fnWTRalldataReport.unittype, fnWTRalldataReport.unittype_count, fnWTRalldataReport.tenantname,

fnWTRalldataReport.tenantstatus, fnWTRalldataReport.tenantstatus_count, fnWTRalldataReport.unitstatus, fnWTRalldataReport.unitstatus_count,

fnWTRalldataReport.floortotal, fnWTRalldataReport.floortotocc, fnWTRalldataReport.floorspaceperc, fnWTRalldataReport.initialvacarea,

fnWTRalldataReport.initialvacnet, fnWTRalldataReport.TotalRent, fnWTRalldataReport.NetRent, fnWTRalldataReport.FinalRtLsincSC,

fnWTRalldataReport.rentrolldiscperc, fnWTRalldataReport.netrentpersqft, fnWTRalldataReport.ErvTot, fnWTRalldataReport.tenancyterm,

fnWTRalldataReport.landact, fnWTRalldataReport.datadate, fnWTRalldataReport.div_mgr, fnWTRalldataReport.portfolio_mgr,

fnWTRalldataReport.propcat, fnWTRalldataReport.budgeted_net_rent, fnWTRalldataReport.budgeted_occupancy,

fnWTRbudgetdata_1.budgeted_net_rent AS budget_rent, fnWTRbudgetdata_1.budgeted_occupancy AS budget_occ

FROM dbo.fnWTRalldataReport(@dt_src_date, @chr_div, @vch_portfolio_no, @vch_prop_cat) AS fnWTRalldataReport LEFT OUTER JOIN

dbo.fnWTRbudgetdata(@dt_src_date) AS fnWTRbudgetdata_1 ON fnWTRalldataReport.siteref = fnWTRbudgetdata_1.site_ref

The result of this SQL places a value for budget_rent and budget_occ against every row that the 1st function's result set. What I want to achieve is that where the site_ref is equal in both functions results, I want it to place the budget_rent & budget_occ value against the first row only of each site_ref only.

To explain briefly the structure. Table one has various fields including site_ref and unit_ref. There are many unit_ref's per site_ref in this table. Table 2 has only site_ref and budget info. Someone yesterday suggested that I could achieve this my using something along the lines of the Min() function e.g. Min(unit_ref).

Could someone please elaborate on this for me. I have gone through my SQL book and read about min() and also BOL, but I can't quite work the syntax out to put the budget info against only one line per site based around the lowest unit_ref per site_ref.

This might seem confusing, but it is easier to read than the other thread I assure you.

Your problem is still unclear.
Simplify the number of columns and add some data examples.
