I have a table with the following fields sif_no, ClassCode, Salary. There are many ClassCodes for a policy. I want to get the ClassCode with the highest salary. See snippet of code below that I use. However, if there is a policy(sif_no) with two class codes with the same salary it will pick up both.

I would like to have only 1 ClassCode returned in the query and it doesn't matter which ClassCode is selected.
***get the max salary and class code
Select sif_no, class_code,  salary ;
	from tmpmem_class  a ;
	WHERE salary = ( Select Max(salary) From tmpmem_class b ;
	WHERE a.sif_no = b.sif_no)  ;
	INTO Cursor tmpmax
Any suggestions.
