David,
I have a table of events at different locations and want to select the newest one for each location.
Famous & oft-asked, how to retrieve a groupwise-max values. See http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.0/en/example-maximum-column-group-row.html

Hi, is there any way to get datasets sorted before they're grouped by GROUP BY()? I have a table of events at different locations and want to select the newest one for each location. However "SELECT * FROM events GROUP BY location ORDER BY date DESC" gives me just some event per location and the result sorted by date. Thanks in advance David ps: please cc, I'm not on the list
