what is your sql statement?

[deulu]

ok..my sql statement..

if you mean my connection to my database then it is the following:

Function news() As System.Data.DataSet
Dim connectionString As String = "Provider=Microsoft.Jet.OLEDB.4.0; Ole DB Services=-4; Data Source=C:\my last\mydat"& _
"abase.mdb"
Dim dbConnection As System.Data.IDbConnection = New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbConnection(connectionString)

Dim queryString As String = "SELECT [updatetable].[local1], [updatetable].[local2], [updatetable].[analyze] FR"& _
"OM [updatetable]"
Dim dbCommand As System.Data.IDbCommand = New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbCommand
dbCommand.CommandText = queryString
dbCommand.Connection = dbConnection

Dim dataAdapter As System.Data.IDbDataAdapter = New System.Data.OleDb.OleDbDataAdapter
dataAdapter.SelectCommand = dbCommand
Dim dataSet As System.Data.DataSet = New System.Data.DataSet
dataAdapter.Fill(dataSet)

Return dataSet
End Function

The above was a connection and then comes:

Sub Page_Load(sender As Object, e As EventArgs)
label1.text= naharnews().Tables(0).Rows(0)(0)
label2.text= naharnews().Tables(0).Rows(0)(1)
label3.text= naharnews().Tables(0).Rows(0)(2)

databind()
End Sub

that loads my page.

Other than that i have no sql statement cus i thought i don't need it...I just used the page_load to load the content from the database but the problem is that as i said before it keeps reading the entry referred to the oldest ID. whereas, i need the opposite.

Yes, i thought of having an sql statement so i can specify a condition of taking the maximum id...

but i don't know where to display it...
there should be something...
thanks alot...

your query string is your sql....

"SELECT [updatetable].[local1], [updatetable].[local2], [updatetable].[analyze] FR"& _
"OM [updatetable] ORDER BY [updatetable].[local1] DESC"

not sure what your id column is so I just picked one.....

you can use this sql statement
select top 1 AnyField from table name order by TheIDField Desc

this will return just the first row found at the end of the table
hope its working ;)
