searching results from a search
I'm just wondering if i can do the following

I have a mdb file with the fields Country, Name, Date. The data when filled out would like like this

Australia - John - 21/7/02
Australia - Bill - 22/7/02
Australia - wendy - 23/7/02
Usa - Geoff - 23/7/02
Usa - Bill - 23/8/02

What i need to do is a search on the name "Bill" but only search on the latest records added to the database for each Country (by date) and return a result that matches "Bill".

I currently have a search set up that does an outter and inner search but it searches for anything matching "Bill" and then returns the latest records for anything that its matched (so i get results for Australia because its found a bill record but it displays the latest record for wendy)

any help or directions for me to continue my search would be greatly appreciated

Search for the name where max(date) and limit the result set to one record. If you are using ROWCOUNT n in MS SQL
or Limit n in MySQL. What DBMS are you using?
