Carel,--
I understand your point but that's not the goal of a list like this.
Many times we answer the same question, asked a different way than the
last time.
All folks benefit, and most folks on this list simply read the posts
and rarely if ever post themselves, even folks that have not run
across this SQL
function yet will be helped. I ask SQL questions and yes I could take a
class, read a book etc., but my knowledge is good enough for my needs
most of the time, so I was helped by this answer even though I did not pose it.
If you don't like a question or list member, ignore them but never
berate them for asking a question.

Subject: Re: Use of MAX?
Without sounding offending, but this is a simple RTFM.
This has been advised many times to you, but for every simple SQL
question you come to this list, while a simple search on the Internet
or the appropriate manual would have helped you.
Have you ever considered to take a course in SQL or read a
book/article on the basic principles on SQL? I advice you to do it. It
saves you a lot of time.

HI I want to use MAX in this SQL. Because we have some cases where--
Duplicates are entered. IN this particular sales data, there is no
check in the application.
So I have a reporting tool using a view and would need to remove
these dupes. The dupes will be manifest in these 5 fields and the
time is the only one that will differ (possibly the date) so If I
select on MAX I would get a distinct: So far it is not allowing, it
gives an
error:
"SQL0122 - Column OHPTTC or expression in SELECT list not valid."
The dupes appear here: an example: We want only the 001 row but
only
1 of the next 2
