Hi! Graham Cossey wrote:
TableA record_id product_ref TableB timestamp record_id action I want to create a SELECT that joins these 2 tables where the JOIN to TableB only returns the most recent entry by timestamp.
For instance, to select all columns: select * from TableA join TableB on TableA.record_id = TableB.record_id order by timestamp desc limit 1 So you just join everything, then order by time in descening order and then just returning the first record = the newest record in the database. If you don't want all columns, then simply replace the star with the names of the columns you want. I hope that this is what you wanted the query to do.. :) Cheers, Krister Karlström, Helsinki, Finland
