[hallosenthil]

the relations are



MEMBERSHIP(memb ership_number (pk), cover_type(pk),
start_date(pk), end_date)

PERSON(person_n umber(pk), surname, initials, street_address, suburb, ,
membership_numb er)

DOCTOR(doctor_n umber(pk), surname, initials, street_address, suburb)

PROVIDED-SERVICE(person_ number(pk), doctor_number(p k), service_date(pk ),
service_number)

REBATE(service_ number(pk), cover_type(pk), refund)

SERVICE(service _number(pk), service_name, service_descrip tion)





i am struggling in this query can any one help me



1)List the service-names and maximum refund payable for those services
which have been provided to every person who has visited a doctor.



this query asks for info about those services provided to every person
who has visited a doctor. For each such services, list the name of the
service and the maximum refund for that service (i.e. the same service
can have many different refunds, only list the highest refund). Maximum
refund therefore refers to the maximum for each such service, not a
maximum across all services.





2)what is the name and address of the doctor, or doctors, who have
provided services to the smallest non-zero number of individual
patients (regardless of the number of services they provided to
each patient)?







i dont the answers for these queries if anyone help me in this regard i
would be so thankful

Re: help in sql query

Please include proper DDL with your posts, including constraints and
datatypes. Here are my solutions based on assumptions about your foreign
keys:

1)
SELECT S.service_name, SUM(R.refund) AS maximum_refund
FROM Rebate AS R
JOIN Service AS S
ON R.service_numbe r = S.service_numbe r
JOIN Provided_Servic e AS P
ON S.service_numbe r = P.service_numbe r
JOIN Doctor AS D
ON P.doctor_number = D.doctor_number
GROUP BY S.service_name
WHERE D.doctor_number = @doctor_number

2)
SELECT D.doctor_number , D.surname, D.initials, D.street_addres s, D.suburb,
COUNT(DISTINCT P.person_number ) AS no_of_patients
FROM Doctor AS D
JOIN Provided_Servic e AS P
ON D.doctor_number = P.doctor_number
GROUP BY D.doctor_number , D.surname, D.initials, D.street_addres s, D.suburb
HAVING COUNT(DISTINCT P.person_number ) <= ALL
(SELECT COUNT(DISTINCT person_number)
FROM Provided_Servic e
GROUP BY doctor_number)

Re: help in sql query


thanks for your reply



SELECT S.service_name, MAX(R.refund) AS maximum_refund

FROM Rebate AS R

JOIN Service AS S

ON R.service_numbe r = S.service_numbe r

JOIN Provided_Servic e AS P

ON S.service_numbe r = P.service_numbe r

JOIN Doctor AS D

ON P.doctor_number = D.doctor_number

GROUP BY S.service_name

WHERE D.doctor_number = @doctor_number





here i dont understand the last line can you explain it a bit

i think the query will bring up the maximum refund for those services
which doctor attended.



my question is maximum refund for those services for a person who
attends a doctor and

the value of refund which is dependend on the cover_type of a member
