There's a desk with ten drawers. You open the first one. You want to grab contents of the tenth drawer, but without opening it. How do you do that?

Although I don't quite understand what prevents you from going to the last record and do with it whatever you want, there (perhaps) is a way to do something about the problem: if that "tenth" record is the last one (based on some criteria, such as a sequence number, date (time) column etc.), and if these records are stored in the database, you might try to
SELECT col1, col2, ...
FROM this_table t1
WHERE t1.last_record_identifier_column = (SELECT MAX(t2.last_Record_identifier_column)
                                          FROM this_table t2
                                          WHERE t2.id_column = t1.id_column
                                         );

However, if these records are not in the database yet, I believe you'll have to navigate to the last record in order to manipulate with its contents.

If you want all records to be retrived in your FORMS DATA BLOCK then See QUERY ALL RECORD.

If you want to get the values of the last record then I think LittleFoot is right you have to use a QUERY.

Question by qanita786
i want to get last record in data block

Answer by musman
System.Last_record

What about ":system.last_record"? It returns a Boolean (i.e. current record is (or is not) the last one). How did you mean to use it in order to get the last record?

(By the way (I forgot to mention it last time): qanita786, please, use punctuation next time you post a message. Your initial post is simply horrible; several lines of text with no full stop, comma, initial capital letter and/or whatever makes punctuation).
