Good morning!! I'm trying to select 1 and only one record from each user based on the last date from a transaction file. This is what I'm using and it's not even close. It seems DISTINCT does not work!! SELECT DISCTINCT(transaction_user_id), MAX(transaction_date), * FROM transaction; Could some kind soul help me figure this one out?? Robin E.
