This message has been marked as the solution to the initial question of the thread.
Try
Select sif_no, MIN(class_code) AS class_code,  MAX(salary) AS salary ;
	from tmpmem_class  a ;
	GROUP BY 1 ;
	INTO Cursor tmpmax
>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.
