Direct Query Last Note

i have a table that contains "service tickets" and a "Note" Table the relation ship is Many to one.

 

I am connecting using Direct Query.  

 

I am looking to display on a table the Last Note. 

 

Sortby doesnt work because some notes are duplicates.  

 

I concatenated the date and the note trying to show the Latest but its a string, which isnt accurate. 

 

 

Please Help!!!
