declare @ad table (adcontrolid int)
insert @ad
select 1 union all
select 2 union all
select 3 union all
select 4

declare @adevent table (adcontrolid int, moderationdate datetime)
insert @adevent
select 1, getdate() -1 union all
select 1, getdate() union all
select 2, '04-01-2012' union all
select 2, '03-01-2012'

I like to get the latest moderation date. I dont wanna have 4 records result. I just want 2 records, like below.

return:
1, getdate()
2, '04-01-2012'
