Look in the [ShowNext] online docs for things like max=1, position=begin, etc. The example in the docs does what you want, except you should add max=1 to limit the number of links.

I would like (and I'm assuming the original author of this note also wants) a single 'previous' before the found items and a single 'next' after. Max would still be something appropriate, like 30. Searching many records would produce something somewhere in the middle like:previous 40Item 220 Item 221 Item 222 . . . Item 260next 40The max=1 thing has me baffled.Pat McCormick Associated Messages, from the most recent to the oldest:
