Here we can find out 2nd highest salary in many ways,
according to the situation we can select anyone…
1st Type:
select min(esal) from emp where esal in (select top 2 esal
from emp order by esal desc)

2nd Type:
select max(esal) from emp where esal not in(select max(esal)
from emp)

3rd Type:
select max(esal) from emp where esal <(select max(esal) from
emp )

4th Type:
select Max(esal) from EMP a where 2=(select
COUNT(distinct(esal)) from EMP b where a.eSAL<=b.eSAL);

from emp)

Answer / pankaj kumar

if am not wrong we can also do the same thing by using aggreate function like Min or Max..

Like if i want to know 4th Highest Salary then i can

SELECT MIN(Sal) FROM TableName
WHERE Sal IN
(SELECT TOP 4 Sal FROM TableName ORDER BY Sal DESC)
