    Thread moved to the 'Database Development' forum - which is where you should always post SQL questions (while SQL can be used in VB.Net, it is certainly not specific to VB.Net)


    To get the highest value of a field (unless it is text/char based), use the Max function, eg:
    Code:
    Select Max(PurchaseDate) as lastdate From productsSale Where custname = 'timple'
