Who can help me to the question between the two tables My scenario.

Sort by number as Position 1,2,3. However, a number of the groups to list only one record (order by Position ASC (Position: 1,2,3)

With PositionTable.ContentFK = ContentTable.ContentID by UpdateDate of last update in ContentTablo

How I can get list same as result.

p.Postion     p.ID            p.ContentFK     c.UpdateDate      c.Title

1             12              101             12.10.2009        Microsoft 
2             13              104             16.11.2009        novell 
3             16              105             17.11.2009        asus

Thanks all,

This should do it:

EDIT: Original code was because I thought your dates were MM.DD.YYYY. Realized your dates were DD.MM.YYYY and adjusted code accordingly.

EDIT 2: Changed answer based on feedback for UpdateDate datatype.

;with cteMaxDate as (
    select p.Position, MAX(c.UpdateDate) as MaxDate
        from PositionTable p
            inner join ContentTable c
                on p.ContentFK = c.ContentID
        group by p.Position
)
select p.Position, p.ID, p.ContentFK, c.UpdateDate, c.Title
    from cteMaxDate m
        inner join PositionTable p
            on m.Position = p.Position
        inner join ContentTable c
            on p.ContentFK = c.ContentID
                and m.MaxDate = c.UpdateDate

Try:

select Position,  ID, ContentFK, UpdateDate, Title
from (
select  p.Position,
    p.ID,
    p.ContentFK,
    c.UpdateDate,
    c.Title,
    row_number() over (partition by p.Position order by p.Position, c.UpdateDate desc) as num
from    Position p inner join
    Content c on p.ContentFK = c.ContentId ) a
where   num = 1

The subquery's a bit ugly (and correlated), but this is the simplest way I can think of doing it.

Assuming your UpdateDate column is DATETIME - otherwise you'll have to do something like Joe did (or, better, change the column to DATETIME :-)

select p.Position
    ,p.ID
    ,p.ContentFK
    ,c.UpdateDate
    ,c.Title
from PositionTable p
join ContentTable c
    on p.ContentFK = c.ContentID
    and c.UpdateDate = (select max(ic.UpdateDate) from ContentTable ic
                            join PositionTable ip
                                on ip.ContentFK = ic.ContentID
                            where ip.Position = p.Position)
order by p.Position
