Query Problem

Hello
I have something wrong with my query and i can't seem to find it

I want to select put a position number on each of the rows based on
"Completed" date

I have a table like this
5-Digit Dealership Number Completed
12345 12/12/06
12345 11/12/06
12345 5/5/06
23456 4/2/06
etc

Here is my Query

SELECT T1.[5-Digit Dealership Number], T1.COMPLETED, Count(*) AS
[Position]
FROM [tbl_all-info-needed] AS T1 INNER JOIN [tbl_all-info-needed] AS T2

ON (T1.COMPLETED<=T2.COMPLETED)
AND (T1.[5-Digit Dealership Number]=T2.[5-Digit Dealership Number])
GROUP BY T1.[5-Digit Dealership Number], T1.COMPLETED
ORDER BY t1.[5-Digit Dealership Number], T1.completed DESC;

I want it to do this
5-Digit Dealership Number Completed Position
12345 12/12/06 1
12345 11/12/06 2
12345 5/5/06 3
23456 4/2/06 1
etc
The problem is some of the positions are showing up as 4, and 8
and each dealer has a max of 3 completed dates
I want it to group each 5-digit dealer number and put a position on the
completed date


Thanks in advance

Try Something like this:

SELECT T1.[5-Digit Dealership Number], T1.[Completed],
(SELECT Count(*)
FROM [tbl_all-info-needed] T2
WHERE T2.Completed <=T1.Completed) As Position
FROM [tbl_all-info-needed] T1;

Thanks for your help

But i fixed the problem
If there are more than two records with the same date it recounts the
record for some reason

Thanks

SORRY

Instead of counting the Position
can i just show the Position? like 1st row of 12345 = 1
2nd row of 12345 = 2

etc.

Hi,

if more than two records with the same date the query doesn't work.

Do you have an Id field in the table ?
ex.
----
Id 5-Digit Dealership Number Completed
90 12345 12/12/2006
85 12345 12/12/2006
77 12345 11/12/2006
22 22345 04/02/2006
----

if you have the id field try this query
----
SELECT T1.[5-Digit Dealership Number],
T1.COMPLETED,
Count(T2.Completed)+1 AS [Position]
FROM [tbl_all-info-needed] AS T1
LEFT JOIN [tbl_all-info-needed] AS T2
ON (T1.[5-Digit Dealership Number]=T2.[5-Digit Dealership Number])
AND (T1.COMPLETED<T2.COMPLETED
OR T1.COMPLETED=T2.COMPLETED
AND T1.ID<T2.Id)
GROUP BY T1.Id,T1.[5-Digit Dealership Number], T1.COMPLETED
ORDER BY t1.[5-Digit Dealership Number], T1.completed DESC,T1.Id DESC;

[tbl_all-info-needed] is not a Table ?

If it is, add a new field:
Name: Id
Type: Autonumber

Bye
