Making some progress but I need your help. Given this:
db.define_table('t1',SQLField('name')) db.define_table('t2',SQLField('t1',db.t1),SQLField('name')) Are these valid MSSQL Statements? 1) db(db.t1.id>0)._select(orderby=db.t1.name,groupby=db.t1.name) 'SELECT t1.id, t1.name FROM t1 WHERE t1.id>0 GROUP BY t1.name ORDER BY t1.name;' 2) db(db.t1.id==db.t2.t1)._select (orderby=db.t1.name,groupby=db.t1.name,limitby=(1,2)) 'SELECT t2.id, t2.t1, t2.name, t1.id, t1.name FROM (SELECT t2.id, t2.t1, t2.name, t1.id, t1.name, ROW_NUMBER() OVER( GROUP BY t1.name ORDER BY t1.name) AS w_rown FROM t2, t1 WHERE w_rown>=1 AND w_rown<2) WHERE t1.id=t2.t1 GROUP BY t1.name ORDER BY t1.name;' 3) db()._select(db.t1.ALL,db.t2.ALL,left=db.t2.on (db.t1.id==db.t2.t1),orderby=db.t1.name,groupby=db.t1.name,limitby= (1,2)) 'SELECT t1.id, t1.name, t2.id, t2.t1, t2.name FROM (SELECT t1.id, t1.name, t2.id, t2.t1, t2.name, ROW_NUMBER() OVER( GROUP BY t1.name ORDER BY t1.name) AS w_rown FROM t1 LEFT JOIN t2 ON t1.id=t2.t1 WHERE w_rown>=1 AND w_rown<2) GROUP BY t1.name ORDER BY t1.name;' If not, how should they be fixed (SQL)?
