printing out a record set backwards
let's say that i have 4 elements in the record set. but instead of printing them out in order i want to go backwards like so..
4 3 2 1 how would one accomplish this? I've tried moving to the 4th element and using the moveprevious command but that doesn't seem to work. any help? thanks.

Re: printing out a record set backwards
you would need to use
rs.movelast for myloop = rs.recordcount to 1 step -1 'do something rs.moveprevious next .... or something very similar.

Re: printing out a record set backwards
You can do as Rob said, but bad form in my opinion. Better to put a proper ORDER BY in your SQL.
