    <p>If you don't need to actually use the row number for anything, then I would just go with getting the TOP 1 row. The query could be simplified a lot. I like to start by first selecting from the table that will be filtered out the most by your predicates. Hopefully, you have a good index on frs.fundraiserid and all of the columns participating in the joins.</p> <pre><code>SELECT TOP 2 customercampaignname + ' $' + CONVERT(VARCHAR(255), CAST(SUM(d.mastercurrencyamount) AS NUMERIC(36,2) ) ) AS 'Check_Stub_Comment2', ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY SUM(d.mastercurrencyamount) DESC) as rownumber FROM bb02_fundraiserrevenuestream frs JOIN bb02_donationline dl ON dl.fundraiserrevenuestreamid = frs.fundraiserrevenuestreamid JOIN bb02_donation d ON d.donationid = dl.donationid WHERE frs.fundraiserid = 1869 AND d.customercampaignname IS NOT NULL AND d.customercampaignname != '' GROUP BY d.CustomerCampaignName ORDER BY SUM(d.mastercurrencyamount) DESC </code></pre> <p>Since you need to be able to select either the 1st or 2nd row, then wrap it up in a CTE or subquery.</p> <pre><code>WITH topcampaign AS ( SELECT TOP 2 customercampaignname + ' $' + CONVERT(varchar(255), CAST(SUM(d.mastercurrencyamount) AS NUMERIC(36,2) ) ) AS 'Check_Stub_Comment2', ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY SUM(d.mastercurrencyamount) DESC) as rownumber FROM bb02_fundraiserrevenuestream frs JOIN bb02_donationline dl ON dl.fundraiserrevenuestreamid = frs.fundraiserrevenuestreamid JOIN bb02_donation d ON d.donationid = dl.donationid WHERE frs.fundraiserid = 1869 AND d.customercampaignname IS NOT NULL AND d.customercampaignname != '' GROUP BY d.CustomerCampaignName ORDER BY SUM(d.mastercurrencyamount) DESC ) SELECT * from topcampaign WHERE rownumber = 1 </code></pre> <p>As another possible optimization, I took the CONVERT out of the CTE and put it in the final select. Not sure if that helps much.</p> <pre><code>WITH topcampaign AS ( SELECT TOP 2 customercampaignname, SUM(d.mastercurrencyamount) AS amount, ROW_NUMBER() OVER(ORDER BY SUM(d.mastercurrencyamount) DESC) as rownumber FROM bb02_fundraiserrevenuestream frs JOIN bb02_donationline dl ON dl.fundraiserrevenuestreamid = frs.fundraiserrevenuestreamid JOIN bb02_donation d ON d.donationid = dl.donationid WHERE frs.fundraiserid = 1869 AND d.customercampaignname IS NOT NULL AND d.customercampaignname != '' GROUP BY d.CustomerCampaignName ORDER BY SUM(d.mastercurrencyamount) DESC ) SELECT rownumber, customercampaignname + ' $' + CONVERT(varchar(255), CAST(amount AS NUMERIC(36,2) ) ) AS 'Check_Stub_Comment2' FROM topcampaign WHERE rownumber = 1 </code></pre>

    1. COThanks - I actually need the row number so that I can select either the 1st or 2nd row. Top 1 would work, but I still would need a way to query for the 2nd row.

    2. COI edited my answer to add the ROW_NUMBER to the output. You can change TOP to be TOP N Where N is any valid integer. So if you need only the top 2 and also need the rownumber, then change it to TOP 2.

    3. COLet me explain again. I need it to either return row 1 OR return row 2 exclusively. So, I would need to say "where rownumber = 2" and get only row 2 in the result set. I'm trying to make that happen with your sql above right now.

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
