    Having problems running query in Oracle

    I have two tables and want to find the Maximum date for a given GIN.
    I have been able to produce the result in Sybase but I am having
    problems in Oracle.

    Example of my query in Sybase.

    create table #temp1 (
    groupcode char(10),
    loc_acc_no int,
    gin int,
    amount money,
    brancode char(10) )

    create table #temp2 (
    loc_acc_no int,
    gin int,
    N_datetime smalldatetime,
    notetext char(10) )

    insert into #temp1 values("GM",26, 3920,100.10,'a' )
    insert into #temp2 values(26,3920, '14 Oct 2003 03:43','Simple' )
    insert into #temp2 values(26,3920, '14 Oct 2003 03:42','Repair' )
    insert into #temp2 values(26,3920, '08 Oct 2003 06:37','Simple' )

    insert into #temp1 values("GM",26, 3921,200.10,'b' )
    insert into #temp2 values(26,3921, '08 Oct 2003 06:36','Repair' )
    insert into #temp2 values(26,3921, '08 Oct 2003 06:34','Repair' )
    insert into #temp2 values(26,3921, '08 Oct 2003 00:17','Simple' )

    insert into #temp1 values("GM",27, 3922,300.10,'c' )
    insert into #temp2 values(27,3922, '03 Oct 2003 07:05','Simple' )
    insert into #temp2 values(27,3922, '03 Oct 2003 07:04','Repair' )

    /*************** *************** ************/
    My query to produce my result.

    select t2.N_datetime,
    t1.groupcode,
    t1.loc_acc_no,
    t1.gin,
    t1.amount,
    t1.brancode,
    t2.notetext
    from #temp1 t1,
    #temp2 t2
    where t1.loc_acc_no = t2.loc_acc_no
    and t1.gin = t2.gin
    group by
    t1.gin
    having t2.N_datetime = max(t2.N_dateti me)

    Results
    -------
    N_datetime groupcode loc_acc_no gin amount brancode notetext
    14/10/2003 03:43:00.000 GM 26 3920 100.10 a Simple
    8/10/2003 06:36:00.000 GM 26 3921 200.10 b Repair
    3/10/2003 07:05:00.000 GM 27 3922 300.10 c Simple


    If anyone can help re-write the above query so it works in Oracle that
    would
    be much appreciated.

    Thanks
