Thats because i ve used CTE(common table expressions).. try this ;with cte_Test as (select *,ROW_NUMBER() over(PARTITION by storename order by storename) as rn from store) select * from cte_Test a where rn =(select MAX(rn) from cte_Test b where b.Storename=a.Storename)

Thank You very much Santosh But if I use it in stored procedure it throws same error. please help

Thanx for your help Santosh, but it throws an error- Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'with'. If this statement is a common table expression or an xmlnamespaces clause, the previous statement must be terminated with a semicolon.

Check this. create table store (Storename varchar(10), manager char(10), supervisor char(2)) insert into store values ('mumbai','a','x') insert into store values ('mumbai','b','z') insert into store values ('mumbai','c','y') insert into store values ('thanae','d','x') insert into store values ('thanae','e','x') with cte_Test as (select *,ROW_NUMBER() over(PARTITION by storename order by storename) as rn from store) select * from cte_Test a where rn =(select MAX(rn) from cte_Test b where b.Storename=a.Storename)
