    Power Selecting - Conclusion


    (Page 6 of 6 )

    The SELECT command is probably the most powerful and most often used SQL command. With it, DISTINCT, ORDER BY AS and LIKE can be used to fine-tune a query.

    Practice and experiment with SELECT and its keywords and you'll soon find any result can easily be retrieved, sorted and displayed exactly as needed!
