I have a table order(orderid, ordernumber, clientid, orderdesc etc.,) and a corresponding status for that order on an order_status table ( statusid, orderid, statusdesc, statusNote, statustimestamp)

say I have a record in order as below

orderid     orderumber     clientid    orderdesc
1111        00980065       ABC         blah..blah..

and a corresponding status entries

statusid   orderid       statusdesc    statusNote    statustimestamp
11         1111          recvd         status blah   yyyy-mm-dd:10:00
12         1111          clientproce   status blah   yyyy-mm-dd:11:00
13         1111          clientnotice  status blah   yyyy-mm-dd:15:00
14         1111          notified      status blah   yyyy-mm-dd:17:00

How can I get the following result (latest timestamp along with multiple columns)

1111  14  00980065 ABC  blah..blah..  notified  status blah yyyy-mm-dd:17:00
