I want to do something like thisselect max(id) quotewhere first_name = first_name and surname = 'surname' but this returns null. The id is an identity column so is definitely not null. Can someone help me please? :) |

| How many surnames of 'surname' are in the database? Do a select with your WHERE clause first to see if any rows are returned. If not, that's why your MAX(id) is returned as NULL.Raymond |
