Retrieve Only The Most Recent Record

I'm using SQL to pull records from our db but my query is returning all results in the db table and I only want the most recent entry. There is a date_time column in the format MMDDYYYY HH:MM:SS and I'm using that to order by then writing only the first line which works, but is very slow since there are a lot of records to go through.

What I'm looking for is a way to only retrieve that most recent record instead of pulling them all, then ordering them. Would I be able to use the MAX function for something like this? Does MAX work with a date_time field?

How Do I Retrieve The Key Of An Inserted Record

I have to tables related to eachother,

like for example

an Emlpoyee table which has an Auto Number as primary key and as the ID of the employee.

And Employee_Phones which has 2 fields the Employee's ID and the phone number field.

when I insert a new record in the Employee table, I want to insert multiple records related to it in the Employee_Phones table.

After inserting a record in Employee table I want to retrieve the ID, then use that ID to insert other records in Employee_Phones table.

Is there a command of function to return the ID of the inserted record, Or do I have to query the database again? I've loked for a function or a method but I didn't find any?

How To Retrieve Multiple Images For A Record

In my Access database I have multiple images for some of the records. What is the best way to retrieve and display the multiple images. I am storing the images in a folder and only the path in the DB. Some of them have just 1 image, some 2, some 3 and so on. I have the record ID # and the image name same, for eg. if the record id is R01 then the image name would be R01.jpg if there is only 1 image otherwise R01a.jpg, R01b.jpg, R01c.jpg etc. Is there any way I can open the folder and check for the name and list the image file names as a link to display the images if the ID name and image name matches.

How To Retrieve The Data From Last Record Of The Query?

I have 2 tables Table_A and Table_B are linked together by TaID

Table_A
TaID - autonumber
Name
Address

Table_B
TbID - autonumber
TaID
Comments

here is my asp page
-------------------------
<%@ Language="VBScript" %>



<%
'declare variables
DIM ......

'Assign Variables
.......

Set Conn = Server.CreateObject("ADODB.Connection")

'database connection
Conn.provider = provider
Conn.ConnectionString = dbasepath
Conn.Open

'Sql statement to insert the data
sql = "insert into Table_A ( Name, Address) values (...*data from form*...)

' execute it
Conn.Execute(sql)

Response.Write "Data successfully inserted!"

Conn.Close

Set Conn = Nothing

--------------------------------------------

my question is I also need to insert the data to Table_B, but before that, I want to retrieve the Table_A.TaID first.

so if i do "select TaID from Table_A" and execute the sql how do I assign just the LAST record of TaID and assign to temp variable?

Do I allow to do that? if so, where should I put in the code above?

Most Recent Records

I'm looking for some direction in writing a SELECT statement that will allow me to identify the three most recent records in a table-specifically their unique ID numbers.

Because the records may not be continuous or sequential due to a record being deleted from the table in another part of the app.I can not do something simple like order the statement by DESC and then grab the largest ID.and subtract 1 and 2 from that number to get the three ID's I'm looking for.

Retrieve Data

I have two tables having similiar columns ( i had to do this to compare the values given to me, because both the table data came from different sources)

The tables named are
OFFICERS
token
full_name
division
EMPLOYEE
token
full_name
division

Now the table EMPLOYEE contains more than 5000 records and the table OFFICERS contains around 2400 records which are already present in the EMPLOYEE table.

Now I want to build a query that will return me all the records in the EMPLOYEE table that are not present in the OFFICERS table. The criteria for comparing 'full_name'. so the query should return me 2600 records that are not present in the OFFICERS TABLE.

I tried doing this
" SELECT DISTINCT EMPLOYEE.full_name,EMPLOYEE.token,FROM EMPLOYEE,OFFICERS WHERE EMPLOYEE.full_name<> OFFICERS.full_name"

But this query returns me records that is not present in the OFFICERS table as well as some more 1000 records which are present in both tables.
thanks a lot

Retrieve Data

I have a question, is that any other way to retrieve data from another webpage besides using XML object? Because I am using XML object now but give me so much problems.

If I used MSXML2.ServerXMLHTTP object, it gives me time out error:
msxml3.dll error '80072ee2'
The operation timed out

If I used Microsoft.XMLHTTP object, it will hang IE. In both cases, I have to wait for half an hour or more in order for the XML object to be working again. Actually both webpages that's communicating are hosted at the same machine. The main site (ex. aa.domain.com) points to particular folder under it, while another one (ex. bb.domain.com) points to another folder which is two levels up to the first one.
