Would this work?

Subject: SQL DELETE

Hi

I have this table :

Code Client SeqNo
A 123 10
A 123 20
A 123 30
B 123 40
B 123 50
A 456 35
A 456 30 etc

I want to delete lines so I keep only one line for each pairing of Code and Client. The SeqNo must be the highest number for the pair.

So my table after delete should be :
Code Client SeqNo
A 123 30
B 123 50
A 456 35


Thanks for any help.

PS what's happened to Elvis Budimlic?
