SQL FIRST() 函数

FIRST() 函数返回指定的列中第一个记录的值。

语法


SELECT FIRST(column_name) FROM table_name;

注释：只有 MS Access 支持 FIRST() 函数。


SELECT TOP 1 column_name FROM table_name
ORDER BY column_name ASC;


SELECT TOP 1 CustomerName FROM Customers
ORDER BY CustomerID ASC;


SELECT column_name FROM table_name
ORDER BY column_name ASC
LIMIT 1;


SELECT CustomerName FROM Customers
ORDER BY CustomerID ASC
LIMIT 1;


SELECT column_name FROM table_name
ORDER BY  column_name ASC
WHERE ROWNUM <=1;


SELECT CustomerName FROM Customers
ORDER BY CustomerID ASC
WHERE
ROWNUM <=1;

在本教程中，我们将使用众所周知的 Northwind 样本数据库。

下面是选自 "Customers" 表的数据：

CustomerID	CustomerName	ContactName	Address	City	PostalCode	Country
1	Alfreds Futterkiste	Maria Anders	Obere Str. 57	Berlin	12209	Germany
2	Ana Trujillo Emparedados y helados	Ana Trujillo	Avda. de la Constitución 2222	México D.F.	05021	Mexico
3	Antonio Moreno Taquería	Antonio Moreno	Mataderos 2312	México D.F.	05023	Mexico
4	Around the Horn	Thomas Hardy	120 Hanover Sq.	London	WA1 1DP	UK
5	Berglunds snabbköp	Christina Berglund	Berguvsvägen 8	Luleå	S-958 22	Sweden

下面的 SQL 语句选取 "Customers" 表的 "CustomerName" 列中第一个记录的值：


SELECT FIRST(CustomerName) AS FirstCustomer FROM Customers;
