Select subselect syntax
I want to do a select max(maxid) from the following select statement, as one expression;
select max(id) as maxid from table1 UNION select max(id) as maxid from table2 UNION select max(id) as maxid from table3;
the following expression is wrong but conveys what I am trying to do:
select max(maxid) from (select max(id) as maxid from table1 UNION select max(id) as maxid from table2 UNION select max(id) as maxid from table3);
thanks
andy
