Hi, I've got a MySQL database setup with several different tables. What I'd like to do is to display the last five records entered into the database. I can do this easily from one table just by listing the records with the five highest IDs, but how can I do this over several tables? I don't want to list the last 5 records entered from each table but from the whole database. Is there any easy way of doing this? Thanks. Jamie Saunders web.scripting@btinternet.com
