If anyone's interested I found this great article on the SQL command
SELECT TOP=20

You state that you'd like to accomplish this without using a query...but
to list only a certain number of records, you'd have to use the SQL TOP
predicate, and that's available only in a query. Though, of course, the
query can just be in the report's Record Source (SELECT TOP 5
sActivities FROM tblActivities). To sort, you'd simply use the report's
Sorting And Grouping dialog box to force the report to sort using the
date as the field on which you sort, and 'Descending' as the sort order
(with no group headers or footers).

Here's a good Access puzzle.
I have a table that lists many activities (could be a hundred or more) a
person could participate in.
I'd like, in a report, without using a query, a list of the five most
recent activities.
Basketball 01/02/2004
Baseball 03/07/2005
Soccer 03/10/2005
Tennis 07/07/2003
Swim 07/07/2004
Surf 08/12/2004
Horseback 07/10/2005
In this example, my result would be Horseback, Soccer, Baseball, Surf,
Swim
