MySQL running in phpMyAdmin

SELECT max(reg_no) FROM `a_databasefield` ORDER BY reg_no LIMIT 1

results in; max(reg_no) is 1722319

I want to remove the header completely. I want 1722319 -N etc does not work. and causes a SQL error. -N SELECT max(reg_no) From a_databasefield ORDER BY reg_no LIMIT 1; does not work.

The one request that I do ask of any responder is to first check their answer by running their test in their phpMyAdmin MySQL database 'SQL' area
