Subject: SQL Question
From: jyoung0950@xxxxxxxxx
To: midrange-l@xxxxxxxxxxxx; rpg400-l@xxxxxxxxxxxx

I have a file with the following fields:
Company 2 0
Item 30A
Code 4A
Old Value 10A
New Value 10A
Date 8 0
Time 6 0

There can be many records for each code for each item within a date.
I need to get the most recent record for a given company/item/code.

How would I do this in SQL?

Thanks,
