    probably about the only thing missing to get a meaningful result is the product indication:

    The original specification calls for quantity, not total price (that's why I used COUNT in my set-based solution).

    This is just so wrong... What is the name of the school where they are teaching you to do such a thing in SQL Server?

    RBARs R Us 😀

    Too funny. 🙂 I really do wish I could find the schools that are teaching this stuff so I could suggest a change to their curriculum to them especially if they're using MS SQL Server.

    BTW, congratulations on your recent accolade Mr Moden 😉

    Thanks, Perry. I feel extremely lucky, deeply humbled, and honored all at the same time.

    RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.

    Of course we tend to encourage some thinking and interpreting :w00t:

    Declare @tab1 table

    (id int identity(1,1),name varchar(100),total int)

    Insert into @tab1

    Select ProductName,count(*)as Total from Products p join Sales s

    on p.ProductID = s.ProductID

    group by ProductName

    Declare @count int

    ,@incvalue int

    ,@out_msg varchar(10)

    Set @incvalue = 1

    Select @count = COUNT(*) from @tab1

    While (@count >=@incvalue)

    Begin

    Declare @total int

    ,@prodname varchar(15)

    Select @total = total

    ,@prodname = name

    from @tab1

    Where id = @incvalue

    Print 'a total of'+' '+convert(varchar,@total)+' '+@prodname+' '+'were sold '

    Set @incvalue = @incvalue+1

    END

    O/p is :

    a total of 6 DVD were sold

    a total of 6 Microwave were sold

    a total of 7 Monitor were sold

    a total of 4 Refrigerator were sold

    a total of 4 Speakers were sold

    a total of 5 VCR were sold
