在PostgreSQL 8.4或更高版本中，你可以这样使用:

select user_id, user_value_1, user_value_2
  from (select user_id, user_value_1, user_value_2, row_number()
          over (partition by user_id order by user_date desc) 
        from users) as r
  where r.row_number=1

我不知道你的列的确切名称，但它应该是这样的:

SELECT userid, value
FROM users u1
WHERE date = (
    SELECT MAX(date)
    FROM users u2
    WHERE u1.userid = u2.userid
)

首先，我看错了问题，下面是一个完整的例子，结果是正确的:

CREATE TABLE table_name (id int, the_value varchar(2), the_date datetime);

INSERT INTO table_name (id,the_value,the_date) VALUES(1 ,'a','1/1/2000');
INSERT INTO table_name (id,the_value,the_date) VALUES(1 ,'b','2/2/2002');
INSERT INTO table_name (id,the_value,the_date) VALUES(2 ,'c','1/1/2000');
INSERT INTO table_name (id,the_value,the_date) VALUES(2 ,'d','3/3/2003');
INSERT INTO table_name (id,the_value,the_date) VALUES(2 ,'e','3/3/2003');

--

  select id, the_value
      from table_name u1
      where the_date = (select max(the_date)
                     from table_name u2
                     where u1.id = u2.id)

--

id          the_value
----------- ---------
2           d
2           e
1           b

(3 row(s) affected)

我想是这样的。(请原谅我的语法错误;在这一点上，我习惯使用HQL !)

编辑:也误解了问题!修正了查询…

SELECT UserId, Value
FROM Users AS user
WHERE Date = (
    SELECT MAX(Date)
    FROM Users AS maxtest
    WHERE maxtest.UserId = user.UserId
)

在Oracle 12c+中，你可以使用Top n查询和分析函数排名来实现这一点，而且不需要子查询:

select *
from your_table
order by rank() over (partition by user_id order by my_date desc)
fetch first 1 row with ties;

上面的代码返回每个用户my_date最大的所有行。

如果你只想要一个最大日期的行，那么用row_number替换秩:

select *
from your_table
order by row_number() over (partition by user_id order by my_date desc)
fetch first 1 row with ties; 

这也会处理重复的数据(为每个user_id返回一行):

SELECT *
FROM (
  SELECT u.*, FIRST_VALUE(u.rowid) OVER(PARTITION BY u.user_id ORDER BY u.date DESC) AS last_rowid
  FROM users u
) u2
WHERE u2.rowid = u2.last_rowid
