I'm trying to do the following find() to find the highest id for each
name value in the table.

$result = $this->Model->find('all', array('conditions' => array
('Model.parent_id' => $parent_id),
                                                                'fields' => 
array('MAX(Model.id) as max_id', 'Model.name'),
                                                                'recursive' => 
1,
                                                                'group' => 
array('Model.name')
                                                ));


For the example table:

1    ItemA
2    ItemB
3    ItemC
4    ItemB
5    ItemA

I want the result (any order):

5    ItemA
4    ItemB
3    ItemC


The find() works in MySQL, but not in MS SQL. MS SQL wants me to group
on Model.id also, which then returns more results than I want. What is
the best way for me to do this query?
