Tis I again Not having much luck at the moment with work so I'm stuck once more (different project though).
I'm trying to retrieve only the first 5 most recent articles in a database (Access database and ASP running from IIS 5.0). Everything works fine but I'm not making any headway in retrieving only 5 records from my query. I've tried the setting the ADO Recordset property "MaxRecords" to 5 before running my SQL query but, although it throws up no errors, still retrieves everything. [objRS.MaxRecords = 5] I'm not overly familiar with SQL but I've been told about LIMIT but that's causing an SQL syntax error in my ASP debugger - I'm not sure where it should go in the query string but following examples it still doesn't work. ["SELECT id, title FROM tblDocuments WHERE cat=2 LIMIT 5 ORDER BY datecreated DESC"] Any suggestions? Thanks again you guys...
