>>Hi All -

>>I am experiencing a bit of brain deadness this morning. I set out to write what I thought would be a rather simple SQL select statement but I just can't seem to get my head around it. Thus my plea for help. There are 2 tables CUSTOMERS and ORDERS. Common field is custID. I want to select all customers and the _date and amount of their most recent order (one record per customer). Can someone help me figure out how to do this?

Using VFP:

select Cust.*, Ord.Amount. Ord.Date from Customers Cust INNER JOIN Orders Ord on Cust.CustNo = Ord.CustNo ;
where Ord.OrderID = (select top 1 OrderID from Orders O where O.CustNo = Cust.CustNo ORDER BY OrderDate DESC)

This is one of the possible variations of this query.
