Title: Re: Replication

Hey Folks – have a coded myself into a corner yet?

 

I have a situation with a select count / group by / order by query that I need to limit each group to 500 entries.   Not seeing a way to do this in a single query, do I need to use multiple queries?

Group x has about 200 entries in it; group y has about 5-8k per x.

 

select x, y, count(*) as counter from mytable

 group by x, y

 order by x, counter, y

 

 

   I only want the first 500 for each x.

 

   Any tips or tricks someone might know would be appreciated.

 

   I’m using postgres 8.3.7.

 

   Thanks, Bill
