When I click on the column head, all the rows disappear This is a bug. Please report it to RDCC.
Is there any way to sort the columns now that I have the data I want? You’ll need to add an ORDER BY clause for the time being.

Sinclair Sent: Monday, October 12, 2015 8:23 PM To: [email protected]<mailto:[email protected]> Subject: [RBASE-L] - extracting the most recent data Hi all I have a very long skinny table, 3 columns. A date, a patient number and test code. I want to extract the rows that are the most recent test code for each patient. If patient #3000 has had testcode # 80015 10 times over the last year, then I only want the most recent row for that testcode/patient combination Is there a single command that can do that? Mike
