Completing a MAX() but using data from a few more tables - mysql

Question

well I eventually got to a max() on one table pulling correctly using max() - took me sometime to understand what was going on and reading the limits of mysql when using it
I have spent a some time doing some demo data on sqlfiddle (one below is with just the max on the one table
http://sqlfiddle.com/#!2/fff224/1
what i would like (and to absorb as ive tried for the last 2 hours on getting this to work) is how to incorporate another tables that dont need to use max (i have included these in the sqlfiddle
the result i would be after would be
case_number full_address case owner client compiled date(max()) recommendation
1000 1 high street bob london 14/12/2012 let
1001 2 high street ken Compton 13/12/2013 sell
1002 3 high street ken Leeds 14/12/2013 sell
completing the inner joins between from client\staff\ to case process im fine with its just this nested select max im falling over on

Answer 1

SELECT p.case_number
, p.full_address
, s.case_owner_name 'case owner'
, c.client_name client
, r.compiled_date
, r.recommendation
FROM case_process p
JOIN staff s
ON s.case_owner_number = p.case_owner_number
JOIN client c
ON c.client_number = p.client_number
JOIN reporting r
ON r.case_number = p.case_number
JOIN (SELECT case_number,MAX(compiled_date) max_compiled_date FROM reporting GROUP BY case_number) x
ON x.case_number = r.case_number
AND x.max_compiled_date = r.compiled_date;
+-------------+---------------+------------+---------+---------------+----------------+
| case_number | full_address | case owner | client | compiled_date | recommendation |
+-------------+---------------+------------+---------+---------------+----------------+
| 1000 | 1 high street | Bob | London | 2012-12-14 | let |
| 1001 | 2 high street | Ken | Compton | 2013-12-13 | sell |
| 1002 | 3 high street | Ken | Leeds | 2012-12-14 | sell |
