Sorry, I meant to say "I've tried the subquery", not
the substring, on 4.1, and that's probably what we'll
use in the future.
select date, value, type from A a1 where value =
(select max(a2.value) from A a2 where a1.type =
a2.type);

pad, parse, etc.
However, I tried the substring on 4.1 and it's a
reasonable alternative. Fortunately, by the time we
need this functionality 4.1 will probably be stable.

for type a, the maximum value comes
first in the table, so it's returned in the search
for max query. Again for case a, the minimum value
comes second in the table, so it's not found in the
search for min query
This seems odd. Can anyone tell me what I'm missing ?
Thanks,
