Some time ago I have suggested a creation of new method for TDBISAMTable:

FindLastKey

The purposal of this method is to move the record pointer to a last
occurrence of any key because FindNearest/Prior is not a bullet proof
solution and SetRange/Last isn't so fast as FindKey. I don't know how hard
it could be but I will be glad if I see this method on TElevateDBTable or
even inside v4

Thanks

I'm probably missing something, but doesn't Last do that?

I deleted my reply, btw, but I don't know whether Elevate's news server
handles cancel requests properly. Saw your earlier message and realized
you meant something else than I understood.

Not only doesn't it handle them "properly" - it doesn't handle them.

I was being polite for once.

Actually it's TEDBTable.  I'll see what I can do.
