Hi Frank,

Sorry for not getting back sooner;

http://developer.apple.com/documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/Predicates/Articles/pBNF.html#/ /apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40001796-217785

documents the BNF which is very cryptic but tells you everything that can be in the expression.

So something like this for the predicate;

@"loanToValueRatio = max(loanToValueRatio)"

should work but its been a while since I've messed with it. I did have somethign very similar to this working in a project I did last year.

I'm running off fallible memory here but I believe that the CD SQLite stuff will convert this to the proper SQL.

Good luck!

Hi Bill,

I tried using predicates for this but did not succeed.
What would a predicate look like which finds the object of an entity with the maximum value for a property?

Hi everybody,

does anybody know if CoreData under Leopard offers a way to fetch the object of an entity which the maximum of a certain property value, but without having to fetch all objects into memory?

Cheers

Frank
