Hi,
It's not very clear what you want.
It sounds like you want a Top=-N Query , perhaps like this:
WITH     got_row_cnt     AS
     SELECT       job
     ,       COUNT (*)                         AS row_cnt
--     ,       ...  -- other columns
     ,       RANK () OVER (ORDER BY  COUNT (*) DESC)     AS rnk
     FROM       scott.emp
     GROUP BY  job
SELECT     *     -- or list all columns except rnk
FROM     got_row_cnt
WHERE     rnk     = 1
Whenever you have a problem, please post a little sample data (CREATE TABLE and INSERT statements, relevant columns only) from all tables involved.
Also post the results you want from that data, and an explanation of how you get those results from that data, with specific examples.
Always say which version of Oracle you're using (for example, 11.2.0.2.0).
