>You would have to have a field in your table 2 that is linear in nature as it relates to time. Example a datestamp field or a PK field that is always sequential then you can find the oldest child record by ordering on the FK ( PK of table 1 ) and the special field in table 2.
Thank you. I think you just found the solution.
