Hi All,

How to get only row that has maximum date from data below for each ID without summing up other columns. Below is the expected output.

Data:
id date a1 a2
A 7/1/2015 40 50
A 6/1/2015 30 50
A 5/1/2015 20 50
A 4/1/2015 10 50
B 7/1/2015 40 50
B 6/1/2015 30 50
B 5/1/2015 20 50
B 4/1/2015 10 50

Expected output:
id date a1 a2
A 7/1/2015 40 50
B 7/1/2015 40 50

Hi Yashwanth,

Welcome to the Forum. Please update your signature.

As for your problem, here is a possible solution using the CAR file:
  
-* File yashwanth01.fex
-*DEFINE a random date for each record
DEFINE FILE CAR
TODAY/DMYY='&DMYY';
TDY/I9 WITH RETAIL_COST = TODAY - '01/01/2015';
YDATE/DMYY=TDY + 360*RDUNIF('D6.5');
END
-RUN
-* Select the record where its date is the max
TABLE FILE CAR
SUM MAX.YDATE
BY COUNTRY
PRINT YDATE RETAIL_COST DEALER_COST
BY COUNTRY
WHERE TOTAL MAX.YDATE EQ YDATE;
END

Assuming that for a given id, date occurs once:

TABLE FILE XXXX
PRINT A1 A2
   BY ID
   BY HIGHEST 1 DATE
END
