John writes "I've searched and looked at your answer to the posted question of removing duplicate records, which answer's half of my question. But, my problem is that I have records with duplicate values in my field of 'acctid' and other related fields with other duplicate values and unique values which define which rows of data I need to keep or delete. For example:My fields are:'acctid' 'tradate' 'transno1'1 20000501 51 20000501 4 1 20000430 3 I need to keep the first row of data with the transno1 = 5 because this is the most recent record. Can you give me a solultion or any help to this problem where I have fields with duplicate values but need to keep the row of data which is most current?If you could offer me any help, I'd really appreciate it.Thanks,John" |
