Re: SQL dealing with subquery

Thanks. It throws off a few extra countries where there is only one treaty, but those are
few enough that I can handle them manually.

I thought the solution was also going to give me insight into how to select just the lowest
rate from each couple, (i.e. for each payor, who is the lowest rate payee) but it looks like
I'll have find some time to think about that later (I've also got to think about what to do in tie situations.).

Again, thanks.
