How to chose maximum values when dealing with alphanumeric data?

I have a table which have values like this

Product-1 A01
Product-1 A02
Product-1 B01
Product-1 C01
Product-1 C02
Product-1 C03
Product-2 A01
Product-2 B01
Product-2 B02
Product-2 C01

 

I want the final output like this

Product-1     C03

Product-2     C01

In A,B and C, C is the latest version and in C01 and C02, C02 is the latest. 

Basically it's like picking the latest version.

How can we do something like this in Qlik?

You may apply an aggregation like maxstring(), for example:

t: load P, S from X; inner join(t) load P, maxstring(S) as S resident t group by P;
