I have a data set similar to this: P1id Veg1 Veg2 AreaPoly2 P2ID 1 p p 1 1 1 p p 1.5 2 2 p p 2 3 2 p h 3.5 4
For each group of "Poly1id" records, I wish to output (subset) the record which has largest "AreaPoly2" value, but only if Veg1=Veg2. For this example, the desired dataset would be P1id Veg1 Veg2 AreaPoly2 P2ID 1 p p 1.5 2 2 p p 2 3 Can anyone point me in the right direction on this? Dr. Seth W.
