I have a query that produces results similar to this:

run# rd_pk group#
0 9209 5
1 9209 8
0 9520 2
1 9520 5
0 9520 etc....
0 8652
1 8652
2 8652
0 8895
1 8894

Ultimately I want to know the group number for EACH rd_pk with the
highest run number. Can this be done in one query? Or will I need to
code with a loop?
Thanks
Jodi
