SELECT *
FROM QTEMP/MSMITH
where timestamp(digits(numdate) concat digits(numtime)) =
 (select max(timestamp(digits(numdate) concat digits(numtime)))
  from qtemp/msmith)

nice, gets the columns that go along with the latest date/time, which is probably the unstated driver <g>

also gets multiple records with the same latest date/time, if they exist

thx & hth,

would probably be adding another subselect level to get there with the other statement...

select * from logfile c
where digits(c.logdate) || digits(c.logtime) =
  (select digits(a.logdate) || digits(max(a.logtime))
   from logfile a
   group by a.logdate
   where a.logdate =
     (select max(b.logdate) from logfile b) )

here's one way...

select a.logdate, max(a.logtime)
from logfile a
group by a.logdate
where a.logdate = (select max(b.logdate) from logfile b)

thx & hth,

I need to do an sql select statement that will retrieve the highest
date
in a file, but also the highest time for that particular date.

Originally I was just getting the latest date with  a Select
max(logDate).

I then tried knowing it wouldn't work  Select max(logdate),
max(logTime).

In the above records I would want  20060831- 143250
How would I accomplish this?
