Thank's
Jeff,

That is a good point.  Understanding what "Last" means is important. As you pointed out, depending on the sort order of the recordset, the last record can be different.

Then reset the sort to this each time the form is opened.
Since I deploy all my front ends compiled (mde/accde) then sort order will always be the same when the for opens.

To insure that the sort order does not get changed I also clear any filter when the form closes.  I find this to be more efficient that setting the sort order every time the form opens.
Thanks,

As you know, I never like to speak in absolutes...
It is always best to know multiple techniques and points of view...
