I have a table with the following fields. My requirement is to delete the records from the table when 1. The Flag is set to 'No' 2. For a title, in one record if the flag is set to 'No' and in another record if it is set to 'Yes'. Delete both the records. For example TH-123, In 1st record the flag is set to 'No' and in 4th record flag is set 'Yes' Delete both the records. 3. For a title, in one record if the flag is set to 'No' and in another record if it is set to ''(space). Delete both the records. For example TH-344. Delete both the records.
Title Flag
TH-123 No
TH-344
TH-543 No
TH-123 Yes
Th-344 No
Th-098 Yes
Th-876 Yes
Th-098 Yes
Th-512 No
so now i am expecting a result, with the following records.
Th-098 Yes
Th-876 Yes
Th-098 Yes
I have done this with 2 queries.
update temp1 set [flag] = 'No' WHERE Title IN
(SELECT Title FROM temp1 where [flag] = 'No')
delete from temp1 where [flag] = 'No'
Is it possible to do with a single query. If so please let me know or any other better procedure..
