SQL> CREATE TABLE CLIENT (
  2 CLIENTID NUMBER PRIMARY KEY,
  3 NAME VARCHAR2(10)
  4 );  

Table created.  

SQL> CREATE TABLE PROJECT(
  2 PROJECTID NUMBER PRIMARY KEY,
  3 NAME VARCHAR2(10),
  4 CLIENTID REFERENCES CLIENT(CLIENTID)   5 );  

Table created.  

SQL> insert into client values(1, 'Naveen');  

1 row created.  

SQL> insert into client values(2, 'Santosh');  

1 row created.  

SQL> insert into project values(1, 'Oracle', 1);  

1 row created.  

SQL> insert into project values(2, 'Java', 1);  

1 row created.  

SQL> insert into project values(3, 'SQL', 2);  

1 row created.

cannot perform an aggregate function on an expression containing an

aggregate or subquery

is the error i am getting while i am executing the query.

SELECT name

FROM (SELECT c.name, COUNT(p.clientid) p_count

FROM client c, project p

WHERE c.clientid = p.clientid

GROUP BY c.name) a,

(SELECT MAX(COUNT(clientid)) p_max

FROM project

GROUP BY clientid) b

WHERE a.p_count = b.p_max

clientid and name are the columns in client table

and projectid and clientid are the columns in project table.

try it:

select

name

from

(select c.name, count(p.id) p_count from clients c, projects p

where c.id = p.cl_id

group by c.name) a,

(select max(count(id)) p_max from projects

group by cl_id) b

where a.p_count = b.p_max
