If I am to select the first or the last record in a table, I would do a SELECT TOP 1  myField... and order them ASC or DESC, depending on which one I want to trigger. But how can I select ALL the records BUT the last one?

If you want to show all but the last record it's not really worth the hassle dropping that if you can do it in the application, I'd just not show it in the recordset display...

Well, the way I see it sounded too complicated, that's why I was after a SQl solution. What do you have in mind?

Well just increment a counter when your looping through the recordset and then something like

If Not MyCounter = rs.RecordCount Then
..
MyCounter += 1
End If
