Question

Hello I need some help getting my mysql correct.
I need to select one row which will have the maximum ‘var’ column value.
This is what I have right now but it doesn’t give the maximum

SELECT a.* FROM `table` AS a GROUP BY a.var HAVING a.var = MAX(a.var) AND `code` = '1' AND `type` = '0';

You can use ORDER BY with LIMIT 1:

SELECT col1, col2, ..., coln
FROM `table`
WHERE `code` = '1' AND `type` = '0'
ORDER BY `var` DESC
LIMIT 1
