Pete,

The only way to do this would be if your records had a sequence number or Timestamp that increased for every record. Then set:

dbSQL = "Select * from YourTableName Order By TIME_FIELD DESC" or

dbSQL = "Select * from YourTableName Order By ID DESC"

Do you have such a field? You'll need one!

Mark.
