Question

I want get the maximum value for this record. Please help me:

SELECT rest.field1 
    FROM mastertable AS m
    INNER JOIN  (
        SELECT t1.field1 field1

As you've noticed, the WHERE clause doesn't allow you to use aggregates in it. That's what the HAVING clause is for.

HAVING t1.field3=MAX(t1.field3)
