Leonardo, Unless you add one more column to your Tasks table, specifically: StatusTimestamp as in: IdTask StatusCode StatusName StatusTimestamp You cannot find which record in the table follows which, because order in which records returned from the database is not guaranteed until you add "ORDER BY" clause to your SELECT statement.
