Hi Thom,
Yes, I think you misunderstood.
An example of a table:
hardware_id | ts | diag_value
1 | 2009-12-25 14:00:00 | 43.5 (*)
1 | 2009-12-26 15:00:00 | 43.6
1 | 2009-12-24 13:00:00 | 43.7
2 | 2009-12-24 15:00:00 | 43.8 (*)
2 | 2009-12-24 14:00:00 | 43.9
2 | 2009-12-24 14:16:00 | 43.9
2 | 2009-12-27 14:00:00 | 44.0
I need to get the "most recent" value before "2009-12-25 23:59:59" from
every hardware_id.
For hardware_id=1, the value would be:
1 | 2009-12-25 14:00:00 | 43.5
for hardware_id=2, the value would be:
2 | 2009-12-24 15:00:00 | 43.8
I need a query that will return me those lines marked with (*) :-) is
this possible?
Thanks!
