Hi,
I'm trying to create this query in Informix that will return the first row from each of these "Appt"'s. I originally wanted to find the minimum date but unfortunately, there are multiple PO's and Appt's that have the same date. I know that this should probably be simple but I can't seem to get it. Help!

Appt PO Date
1 1050422199 11/2/2017
1 4050407179 11/2/2017
1 4050407187 11/2/2017
1 1050422172 11/3/2017
1 1050422185 11/4/2017
2 4150393598 11/2/2017
3 4050407178 11/2/2017


Return:

Appt PO Date
1 1050422199 11/2/2017
2 4150393598 11/2/2017
3 4050407178 11/2/2017

I found something that I could use to achieve this...I'll share with the forum.

ROW_NUMBER() over (partition by appt order by Date asc)

Wrap another query around this and choose where row=1
