Overview

In this example we will return a single column in our SELECT statement and add a WHERE clause to limit the records being returned.  In this circumstance all of the values from the column will be returned from the table only when the WHERE criteria is met.  Let's take a look at an example.

USE AdventureWorks;
GO
SELECT LoginID
FROM HumanResources.Employee
WHERE VacationHours = 8;
GO
