Check Register
Thomas Normile

I have created your check register from the tech help video.  Every thing works fine.  I would like to know how to display the records in my continuous form as the last x # of records, just like a printed check register with the current record on the bottom of the list. For example the last 20 records in view.

Thanks for the repllies, however they don't quite cover what I am needing.  In my contiuous form, I want all the records available to view by scrolling, but when the form opens I want the bottom "x" numbers of records to be visible in the form like in a quicken file.  I can scroll back up to see any previous record I want.  But always want the newist record to be on the bottom of the list.

Just add an ORDER BY to get them however you wish

Thanks again for the tips.  I found what I needed by a google search.  Thought I would share for future use
Here is the VBA code I found to be placed in form load:  
    Dim rst As Recordset
    Set rst = Me.RecordsetClone
  
    If rst.RecordCount <> 0 Then
        rst.MoveLast
        rst.Move -20
        Me.Bookmark = rst.Bookmark
    Set rst = Nothing
    End If
Works perfectly for what I want,

Can you be sure there'll always be at least 20 records?

I can adjust the number to any I want, but right now out of 688 records, this code fills my continuous form with the bottom 20 records, but I can scroll up to see any of the other 688 records.  I also have a search file on the form that filters records to what I need.
