Hi,
I need to select the max value from a set of records but I also need the
primary key for that record.
The problem is that the record id may not be the same as the record max
value for the column as in the following example:
Table_x
Id x_col date_col
1 1 2005-04-11
2 1 2005-03-10
3 1 2005-04-12
4 1 2001-01-01
with
SELECT id, x_col, max(date_col)
FROM table_x
GROUP BY x_col
I would probably get the following result
Id x_col date_col
4 1 2005-04-12
and what I would like to get is
Id x_col date_col
3 1 2005-04-12
Is there a way to do that ?
Thanks in advance
Mauricio
