Hi, thanks so much for responding. I tried every select statement in your reply but I am not getting the result. The first one I got the message "Not a single group group function". And with the second one I am getting the same result with what I had before. What I am getting is simply just a column of values in desc order. Is it how Max function works? I only want the one record which has the max value. I did this(following your second sample):

Select DeptID, Month, Amt
From tblSales
where Amt in
(Select Max(Amt)
From tblSales group by DeptID, Month)
and DeptID=123;

The result I got was
DeptID Month Amt
123 Jan 300
123 Feb 200
123 March 100

What I want is:
DeptID Month Amt
123 Jan 300

Did I do anything wrong? Thanks again.
