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.
First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.

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

Is this the o/p u need or anything else
