well - that was what I tried first - but that does not work because that 
returns the latest date for which the task_id has a record as Assignment. 
(It is like it picks up the max date from all records that have 
name_rec_type as Assignment)

But I wanted was if the date corresponding to the name_rec_type as 
Assignment is the max(date) then return that task_id.

I hope I have made myself clear...

Thanks,
Anoop
