SELECT A.A8FYCD, A.A8HFCD, A.A8E6TX,  max(A.A8IONB)max_edition_date,
B.MAXSYMBOL

 FROM Library.File AS A 

 INNER JOIN 

     (SELECT A8FYCD, A8HFCD, A8E6TX, MAX(A8ALIFTE) AS MAXSYMBOL,

A8IONB FROM Library.file GROUP BY A8FYCD, A8HFCD,A8E6TX,A8IONB) AS B

  ON A.A8FYCD = B.A8FYCD AND A.A8HFCD = B.A8HFCD AND

 A.A8E6TX = B.A8E6TX AND A.A8IONB = B.A8IONB

GROUP BY A.A8FYCD, A.A8HFCD,A.A8E6TX,A.A8IONB,B.MAXSYMBOL

ORDER BY A.A8FYCD asc, A.A8HFCD,A.A8E6TX,A.A8IONB,B.MAXSYMBOL

 

 

Returns from the table

 

Name Year   make  Date  Sym

Acur  00    3.2TL blank 18

Acur  00    3.2TL 1000  15

 

The above gets me 2 lines like the sample output above. I just want to
return that 2nd line from above which is the highest date (1000) and the
highest symbol associated with that date. Below is sample of the db 

 

Name Year   make  Date  Sym

Acur  00    3.2TL blank 18

Acur  00    3.2TL blank 17

Acur  00    3.2TL 1000  15

Acur  00    3.2Tl blank 14

Here is another solution.  It is pretty elegant IMO:

 

SELECT A.FNAME, A.LNAME, MAX(A.AGE), B.MAXSALARY

FROM TABLE AS A 

 INNER JOIN 

     (SELECT FNAME, LNAME, MAX(SALARY) AS MAXSALARY

      FROM TABLE GROUP BY FNAME, LNAME) AS B

  ON A.FNAME = A.FNAME AND A.LNAME = B.LNAME AND

     A.SALARY = B.MAXSALRY

GROUP BY A.FNAME, A.LNAME
