How to get the last record??

Hi, I now have to get only the last record from one table
from MS Access.
I was looking for the useful method from API, however,
I cannot get it.
How to get only the last record from one table ???
Please help, thanks.

In RDBMS, row order is really not relavent by iteself. Meaning there is no such thing as 'last record' unless it's in the context of a column (e.g. timeStamp).
Of course, rows are inserted and stored in some natural order, but you cannot assume they'll come back the same way in a 'Select *' as they were entered.
So, if you mean last row as in last inserted row, I would add a timestamp field that's set at insert, or use a autonumber column. Either way, have a column that will always contain the highest number or newest timestamp, and then you can build your where clause from that.
For instance, in Access, I have an autonumbered field called 'fred', with other columns. If I want the last record, I simply use the following:
select * from atable where fred in (SELECT max(fred) AS Max FROM atable);
the 'where in' clause will filter to only those records in the subsequent select statment, which of course is only one, the max of the column fred.

How to get the last record from the database

I am using MS Access database and Swings as GUI. I want to get the last record of a particular column from the table and store it as a varaible.

Hi
To get Last record of resultset, you have pass some parameter in constructor of CreateStatement.In such case Resultset should be scrollable and Readonly
Example
objStatement=objCon.createStatement ResultSet.TYPE_SCROLL_INSENSITIVE, ResultSet.CONCUR_READ_ONLY);
mwwResultSet=cwwStatement.executeQuery(mwwSqlQuery);
while(mwwResultSet.next())
if(mwwResultSet.isLast())
//Fetch the required column record.
String abc=mwwResultSet.getString(1);
I think this will work. Try it.

How to get the last inserted record from a table ?

:-) Hiee E'body
I work on Oracle 8i and need to get the last
record inserted in a table.
I have tried using rownum and rowid pseudo-columns
but that doesn't work.
Can you please help me out ?

I'm not sure about 8i features.
I assume here that you don't have 'Date-Time' stamp columns on the table which is the easiest way to determine the last inserted row in the table.
If not try the following :-
select address, piece, SQL_TEXT
from V$SQLTEXT
where upper(sql_text) like '%INSERT INTO TABLE_NAME%'
Substiute the TABLE_NAME with the name of the actual table.
Have fun.

Hi, San,
Here's one way:
WITH     sample_data     AS
     SELECT DATE '2011-04-04'     AS dt
     FROM     dual
SELECT dt
,     TO_CHAR (dt, 'WW')     AS week_num
,     NEXT_DAY ( dt - 1
           , TO_CHAR ( TRUNC (dt, 'YEAR') - 1
                  , 'Day'
           )          AS end_o_week
FROM     sample_data;Another way is to use date arrithmetic:
WITH     sample_data     AS
     SELECT DATE '2011-04-09'     AS dt
     FROM     dual
SELECT dt
,     TO_CHAR (dt, 'WW')     AS week_num
,     TRUNC (dt, 'YEAR')
      + (7 * CEIL ( (dt - (TRUNC (dt, 'YEAR') - 1))
            / 7
      - 1               AS using_date_arithmetic
FROM     sample_data;

How to get the last day of a month?

HI,
I want to know how to get the last day of a month.
In my JClient form, I tried to get it by using oracle.sql.Date method, that is:
lastday=oracle.sql.Date anydate.lastDayOfMonth();
But it does not work. The result is lastday=anydate.
Why?
Stephen

You can use the Calender class...
Calendar c = Calendar.getInstance();
and then something like...
c.add(c.MONTH, 1);
int dayOfMonth = c.get(Calender.MONTH);
c.add(c.DAY_OF_MONTH, - (dayOfMonth-1) );
other usefull functions are:
System.out.println(" YEAR : " + c.get(Calendar.YEAR));
System.out.println(" MONTH : " + c.get(Calendar.MONTH));
System.out.println(" DAY_OF_MONTH : " + c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_MONTH));
System.out.println(" DAY_OF_WEEK : " + c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK));
System.out.println(" DAY_OF_YEAR : " + c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_YEAR));
System.out.println(" WEEK_OF_YEAR : " + c.get(Calendar.WEEK_OF_YEAR));
System.out.println(" WEEK_OF_MONTH : " + c.get(Calendar.WEEK_OF_MONTH));
System.out.println(" DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_MONTH : " + c.get(Calendar.DAY_OF_WEEK_IN_MONTH));
System.out.println(" HOUR : " + c.get(Calendar.HOUR));
System.out.println(" AM_PM : " + c.get(Calendar.AM_PM));
System.out.println(" HOUR_OF_DAY (24-hour): " + c.get(Calendar.HOUR_OF_DAY));
System.out.println(" MINUTE : " + c.get(Calendar.MINUTE));
System.out.println(" SECOND : " + c.get(Calendar.SECOND));
System.out.println();*/

How to get the last error for while loop?

How to get the last error for while loop? I just want transfer the last error for while loop, but the program use the shift register shift all error every cycle.

What do you mean by "get" and "transfer"?
If the shift register is not what you want, use a plan tunnel instead.
Typically, programmers are interested in the first, not last, error.
Can you show us your code so we have a better idea what you are trying to?

See [this|Re: Date of creation of function module] I posted earlier.

In your case, you need unam and udat.

You have to check the system variable &NEXTPAGE&, if it's 0 it means you're in the last page.
From SAP Help:
This symbol is used to print the number of the following page. The output format is the same as with &PAGE& .
Note that on the last page of the output, in each window that is not of type MAIN, &NEXTPAGE& has the value 0.

How to get the last time a record was modified or created ?

Is there a way (hidden system fields for example, system view, other ?) to get the last time a record of a table was modified or the date it was created.
Thanks for any help.

I know I could do this with a trigger, but I was wondering if there is a data dictionary view I can query to find the date/time a table was last updated. What I have is a table that is constantly getting hammered with new data being uploaded from a third party. We need to keep close tabs to verify that this datafeed is constantly running and bringing in new data. Because the data that comes in comes from multiple timezones and there are hundreds of lines, our attempts at monitoring by just looking at the data leave something to be desired.
