I have a table with numerous columns but needing to perform a query
based on three columns:
Lab_number, result, release_time.
What I want to do is search for lab_number where there is a result but
not released. The problem that is making this difficult for me, is that
there are multiple entries for the same lab_number, due to a lab_number
having 1 or more tests being performed on it. The search I really want
to do is find the lab_number where ALL the tests have been performed and
not the lab_numbers which have partial results.
*-------------------------------------------------------*
|lab_number | result |release_time |
| 1 | 10 |0000-00-00 00:00:00 |
| 1 | 20 |0000-00-00 00:00:00 |
| 2 | 5 |0000-00-00 00:00:00 |
| 2 | |0000-00-00 00:00:00 |
| 3 | |0000-00-00 00:00:00 |
| 3 | |0000-00-00 00:00:00 |
| 3 | |0000-00-00 00:00:00 |
*-------------------------------------------------------*
So the query I want will only return 1, as 2 is not yet complete. The
attempts I have made so far will return 2 as well. The thing that is
really annoying me is that I know I will kick myself when I see a
solution!
Thanks
