Are you sure you want to top them? I mean, if they're good sellers then they
don't deserve to be killed, surely?
Umm.. Anyway.. just get the 'sales' from the database in the right order and
use the first 5 records.. Something like 'SELECT * FROM sales ORDER BY value
DESC'. To limit your page to the first 5 records either use a for...next
loop that goes round 5 times, or else use the recordset.absolutepage
method..

If you are using SQL Server you can do SET ROWCOUNT 5 SELECT (rest of query)
