I have a table named forms with the following structure-

GROUP       | FORM       | FILEPATH
====================================
SomeGroup   | SomeForm1  | SomePath1
SomeGroup   | SomeForm2  | SomePath2
------------------------------------

I use the following query-

SELECT * FROM forms GROUP BY 'GROUP'

It returns only the first row-

GROUP       | FORM       | FILEPATH
====================================
SomeGroup   | SomeForm1  | SomePath1
------------------------------------

Shouldn’t it return both (or all of it)? Or am I (possibly) wrong?

    Thank you everyone for pointing out the obvious mistake I was too blind to see. I finally replaced GROUP BY with ORDER BY and included a WHERE clause to get my desired result. That is what I was intending to use all along. Silly me.

    My final query becomes this-

    SELECT * FROM forms WHERE GROUP='SomeGroup' ORDER BY 'GROUP'
