I have a table with form submissions. The first column (s) is the submission identifier. The second column (d) is the field identifier in the form. The third column (data) is the value that was submitted.

Code:
s|d|data
1|1|2020-07-01
1|2|A
2|1|2020-07-01
2|2|B
3|1|2020-07-02
3|2|B
4|1|2020-07-04
4|2|A
5|1|2020-07-05
5|2|A

Is there a single query method where I can output the data from all records where the second field in the form = "A"?

Code:
s|data (field 2)|data (field 1)
1|A|2020-07-01
4|A|2020-07-04
5|A|2020-07-05
 
I think I resolved this as:

Code:
SELECT `s`, `data` FROM `table` 
WHERE `d` = 1 AND `s` IN (SELECT `s` FROM `table` WHERE `d` = 2 AND `data` = 'A')

This produces an acceptable:

Code:
s|data
1|2020-07-01
4|2020-07-04
5|2020-07-05
