Is there a function that I can use to limit the result set in a report to the last 10 entries? I only want to show the ten most recent results entered. Any advice is appreciated. Thanks

One thing to try would be to do a descending sort on “entry date” or other appropriate object on the query panel. Using the OPTIONS button, select 10 rows. Note that you must do both of these… one without the other will not work.
Then on the report, override the descending sort with an ascending sort if you want things in chronological order.

Thanks, that worked awesome. Bummer that it shows the partial results flag but that is minor. Thanks for the tip!
