I'm trying to get the most recent "Stop Date" value that is less than today.

When I use "LOWEST 1", the code executes.

When I use "HIGHEST 1", I get an error that " (FOC002) A WORD IS NOT RECOGNIZED: 1"

Can anyone see what I'm doing wrong? I've used the "HIGHEST 1" in other queries with no issues.

Thank you.

SET ASNAMES = ON

SET DTSTANDARD = STANDARD

DEFINE FILE FACILITIES
AUDIT_STOP_DATE/YYMD= HDATE(STOPDATE,'YYMD');
END

TABLE FILE FACILITIES
PRINT 
GENERALFACILITYID
AUDIT_STOP_DATE AS 'AUDIT_STOP_DATE'

BY GENERALFACILITYID NOPRINT
BY HIGHEST 1 AUDIT_STOP_DATE NOPRINT

WHERE GENERALFACILITYID EQ '03640'
WHERE AUDIT_STOP_DATE LT &YYMD

ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT EXL2K
END
-EXIT

I tried to simulate your fex, and with the following code I did not get an error:

FILEDEF MASTER DISK FACILITIES.MAS
-RUN

-WRITE MASTER FILENAME=FACILITIES, SUFFIX=FIX
-WRITE MASTER SEGNAME=FACILITIES
-WRITE MASTER FIELDNAME=GENERALFACILITYID, FORMAT=A20, ACTUAL=A20, $
-WRITE MASTER FIELDNAME=STOPDATE, FORMAT=HYYMDS, ACTUAL=A17, $
-RUN

SET ASNAMES = ON
SET DTSTANDARD = STANDARD
-RUN

DEFINE FILE FACILITIES
AUDIT_STOP_DATE/YYMD= HDATE(STOPDATE,'YYMD');
END
-RUN

TABLE FILE FACILITIES
PRINT 
GENERALFACILITYID
AUDIT_STOP_DATE AS 'AUDIT_STOP_DATE'

BY GENERALFACILITYID NOPRINT
BY HIGHEST 1 AUDIT_STOP_DATE NOPRINT

WHERE GENERALFACILITYID EQ '03640'
WHERE AUDIT_STOP_DATE LT &YYMD

ON TABLE PCHOLD FORMAT EXL2K
END
-RUN
