>>>Field1, Field2
>>>10, 4
>>>15, 3
>>>7, 9
>>>Select Max(field1),field2 from table1
>>>does not work the way I need it to be. I need the max. value in Field1 (=15), and it's corresponding field2 (=3). The above select statement will give me the correct field1, but not returning its corresponding field2. I think it returns the first record in field2 instead.
