There are several ways to do that, for instance with DISTINCT ON (only postgresql): test=*# select * from price ; id_product | price | datum ------------+-------+------------ 1 | 10 | 2009-09-01 1 | 12 | 2009-09-10 2 | 11 | 2009-09-10 2 | 8 | 2009-09-13 (4 rows) test=*# select distinct on (id_product) id_product, price from price order by id_product, datum desc; id_product | price ------------+------- 1 | 12 2 | 8 (2 rows) Andreas -- Andreas Kretschmer Kontakt: Heynitz: 035242/47150, D1: 0160/7141639 (mehr: -> Header) -- Sent via pgsql-sql mailing list (pgsql-sql@postgresql.org) To make changes to your subscription: http://www.postgresql.org/mailpref/pgsql-sql
