| I have a select statement to return all users and the date/time entries from a table. I would like to further refine this to only return the most recent Start_Time entry for each user. That is I only want 1 entry returned for each user, and it should reflect the most recent START_TIME entry. This is what I currently have, but can't seem to move beyond it to get what I want.SELECT USER_NAME, START_TIME FROM HISTORY WHERE USER_NAME <> 'flintstone' order by USER_NAME, START_TIME desc Thanks |
