This may be more easier than it sounds but I just can't figure it out.

I have the following table:

orgid---parentid---enddate
1-------2----------01012005
1-------4----------01012006
1-------7----------10012006

I want the result to give me the most recent orgid, parentid. I tried using:

"select orgid, parentid, max(enddate)enddate from aim_agent_team_fact
group by orgid"

But it doesn't give me the correct info i'm looking for. Any help is always appreciated.

This should do it

select orgid
    , (select parentid from aim_agent_team_fact t2 where t2.orgid = t1.orgid and t2.enddate = max(t1.enddate)) parentid
    , max(enddate) enddate
from aim_agent_team_fact t1
group by orgid
