presumably thems who are

Often the reason for having read only access through Base is that the

I'm listening very closely.
Your strategy is based on the assumption that consecutive readings
have consecutive primary keys. Not even just being in the right
order, they have to be consecutive integers for your strategy to
work. This elevates the primary key from internal workings to
data.
As far as I remember it's explicitly stated in the SQL definitions
Id fields should not contain data entered by users
You can't rely on them not least because often they're automatically
generated by the system. They bear no necessary relationship to the
data.

Ok, this is, then, quite an interesting idea.
The problem is that you've got nothing reliable in your data to
relate one date to the next (by the looks of it). You're only taking
readings at roughly monthly intervals.
A good, purely SQL, solution to this would be to code a stored
procedure
Keys are intended for the internal workings of the database, they are
not meant to be used like this.
What you want is the WHERE clause, or occasionally the HAVING clause,
matching or excluding rows based on their data.
Keys are NOT data and should not be used as such.

(yet) know how the internals of Base work, I don't know if that's
important or not.

Thanks Dan Jean-Francois,
Got to use double quotes? Whose idea was that? :-S Mutter mutter
mutter, yup that works :-(
All working now! We'll find out how good it is next week when it
gets used in the production run! :-)
Thanks again

I think the point Mark was making was to switch away from using the
embedded back-end to pretty much any external one. Which is what
you often suggest too.
Yes indeed.
Can HSQLDB be used as an external engine? I thought not, which is why I didn't
include it.

The problem with using dbf files is that you no longer have a
relational database. Because Base is then dealing with files not a
database engine it will only use one file at a time and will not
relate them.
