>I need to select 3 fields from 1 table, but the 3rd field is a max(actiondate). First field is a non-unique ID (many records per ID), the second field is ActionType. I need the record that has the most recent ActionDate for each ID, including the ActionType field. For the life of me, I can not figure out how do this in a SQL statement. There is probably a subquery involved, but I can't figure out how to code it. Anyone got a solution? Something that starts with:
>Select ID, ActionType, Max(ActionDate) as "ActDate" ;

>TIA.
Mark maybe I'm missing something but adding a "group by actiondate" seem sufficient to me.
