sum a column without last record inteo text item

[hudo]

Hello,
in a form is the table scott.emp displayed with an additional column lfdnr
with the entries 0,1,2,...,13 (with the scott.emp having 14 records)

How can the sum of the column emp.sal be displayed in another text item
but the value of emp.sal of the last record should not be included in the summmation

SELECT SUM(EMP.SAL)
WHERE LFDNR <> MAX(LFDNR)

Sincerely

[tamilselvan]

Can you define the criteria for the last record?
