Default Refering to Previous Record

How can I get a Record of a Query to refer to a value in
the previous record?

Thanks

Well, that depends a great deal on what you mean by "previous". A database
does not store records in any particular order and, thus, what is the
"previous" record at one moment may not be at the next.

The record with the last date before the current record.

Then that might be a workable situation. Can you describe the rest of the
data a bit and tell what fields you are trying to reference?
