There are many columns of data in the table. The only column that I would
like to extract a value from is the password field (this is the key as
well). I do not have
Zach,
What syntax can I use to determine how many records are in a MySQL table and
then retrieve the value of the field password for the last record? I tried
using some combinations of COUNT(*) and LIMIT with no success.
SELECT COUNT(*) will answer the first part. What did you try that
does the table have an autoincrement column?

The last record should be whatever the last record is in the table. For
example, if there are 1000 records in the table which COUNT(*) will tell me,
how can I get the password for record 1000. The only thing I can do that
would probably work
SELECT * FROM mytable ORDER BY fielda DESC LIMIT 1;

Excellent. That is more efficient (one select statement) than what I was
trying to do.

Zach,
We're going back and forth on this and getting no where...
So far all you have informed us is that the table has one column, which
contains a bunch of passwords (I also
suggest that this is not really the case and there'll
