Hi guys,
Any ideas with an SQL that will retrieve the expected results?
Expected Results:
==============
ID orderdate customer
2 20/02/2007 JONES
4 20/06/2007 SMITH
6 20/05/2007 BROWN
The above results are from the following resultset in the database:
================================================
ID orderdate customer
1 20/01/2007 SMITH
2 20/02/2007 JONES
3 20/03/2007 BROWN
4 20/06/2007 SMITH
5 20/12/2007 SMITH
6 20/05/2007 BROWN
I need the:
- ID of the record
- the customer name
- most recent orderdate that occurs for that customer
- only the records where the orderdate is less than 20/12/2007
I have been working on this for a while and I have tried the MAX
function and nested SELECT queries all ending with just frustration.
Hope you can help!
S.
