Help with SELECT query

My SELECT query returns a data set, one column of which contains a set
of values corresponding to the same date. I.e. for each date in column
"Date", I have a set of numbers in column "Numbers". However, I am
only interested in getting the largest value in column "Numbers"
corresponding to each value in column "Date". How do I do that?
Thanks,

SELECT "Date", MAX("Numbers")AS "Largest number"
FROM sometable
GROUP BY "Date"|||Marco wrote:

Look up MAX and GROUP BY.
