SQL Question: Retrieving the last record in a file?

All, I have a SQL question, I need to get the last record with a file by
Account Number, basically I need to get that last check number used by
Company Number, is there a SQL statement that I can use for this, it will
also be nice if could use it within a CL program. Any suggestion would be
nice.

Thanks,
