hy,
I have a tabel (history) with fields:
id (uniq), date, time, name, etc.
I want to select after next rules:
- date and time been sort descendent
- only 10 recording
- value of the field name to be unique
syntax must be something this:

SELECT *, DISTINCT name FROM history 
ORDER date DESC, time DESC LIMIT 10

but this not work. how can I do this?

this is structure of tabel:
id  name    date     time  ...etc
----------------------------------------------
1. kale     2002-03-15   14:12_14 ....
2. smith   2002-04-17   15:14:13 ....
3. kale     2002-05-15   16:14:13 .....

I want that result contains only recordings 2 and 3
not 1 because it's same name and it is older then 3.

I use a mysql server.
thanks for help
kale
