If I have a field that can be updated, how do I make sure that the most recent data is shown on my report if the field is updated?
 
Thanks,

if you have multiple rows and each has a datetimestamp you can use it to:
1. create a view, stored proc or command to limit the data based on that being the max value for your group. Liklely you would need an qurey inside a query to accomplish this
2. sort on it and then conditionally suppress when your primary value changes or place data on a the footer or header for display purposes.
