Printing certain entries in table
Is it possible to print only a certain number of entries in a table? E.g. where the status/ priority is "live" and also only the last 5 entries?
If I need to write a query for this, how do I do tis?
Thanks
Merline

Merline,
I would suggest that you write a query to extract the data, then create a report using the data from the query.
To create the query, just select the data you want and then have the conditions as stated above in place to restrict the data set.
Hope this helps
David

Thanks David.
How do I restrict the return of my query to only the last 5 entries for example?
RE: Printing certain entries in table
Merline,
I am not sure if you can do this within Access, you can do it with VBA and other programming languages. Essentially you return the whole set of data then use a loop to count backwards 5 from the last returned entry and then just use those 5 rows.
Hope this helps
David
