You should have included minVS into the final curFinal. Anyway, it doesn't matter, I know that minVS is correct and the KeepInfo is also correct. KeepInfo marks 1 every row with minimum Vs per date group. The rest of the rows (other duplicates) will be marked 0.

So, everything is correct according to the logic we applied. If you need different results, please provide correct logic then.

>no, with curFinal open, I first used Browse. Looked at the data. Then to show you, I used a: copy to myText type csv fields mDate, Vs, mRec, Keepinfo, cntdups, curDups.MinVs. I then formated the data in Word and presented it here. keepInfo is still doing what is shown below.

>>Ok, everything is correct then according to the logic. I assume you manually typed your previous result and didn't type minVs correctly.
