Sorry but I think I wasn't clear enough. I need the integer(101) represtented as a char(e).
So I need to convert the ASCII code(101) back to the character it represents

what i understood is that u want to convert the ASCII value into char

char c=char(101);
another way
int i= 101;

char=static_cast<char>(101);

but keep in mind with range of c

never say die

If you remember that a char is just an int with a smaller range, then assigning an int to a char is just that, a simple assignment.

Querying CSV file

If i have an access database with a table called "USER" with fields ID, AGE, NAME, ADDRESS, and i want address of all users with age = 23, a simple sql query will do (SELECT * FROM USER WHERE blah blah)..

But when I have data in a CSV File, how would i build this sql query? select * from what? Cry | :((

Any help or pointers in this direction is highly appreciated.

Hi Rajesh,
csv file is nothing, just a comma seperated data and whole line denotes a record.
for executing query AFAIK, you have to import that in access and proceed in similiar way you mentioned above.

Thanks for your reply, but I too know its Comma separated text data. My concern is that it would be faster to use CSV instead of Access database.

Dude, I have exported values from Access and created the CSV because it would be faster. You are asking me to create a MDB out of it again Confused | :confused:

Rajesh is correct.

1. Create a CSV file by exporting 10000 records.
2. Perform data operation on your MDB and CSV file.
3. You will surely find csv to be faster since it is text based.

hi,
Use OpenRowSet for performing data operations on .CSV files. I do not know if you could edit data, but you could query for sure.

Hai,
CSV is just a text file...You cannot perform any operations on that.
I think you have to Convert that text File in Table/Excel Format..
For this ..first you have to check ...
1.weather your file is variable length/Fixed length....
(...means weather your file is following any format..or not)
2.How it is parsed...(with coma,semicolon, space,tab etc)

Sir, it is possible to perform operations on that. Atleast query operations. This can be done by using the xls driver. (select * from Sheet1 where blah blah).

CSV = Comma separated values. Parsed with comma.

You can use the ODBC Text file driver to query the csv directly. However, it only gives you read access to the csv.

onwards and upwards...

Example assumes that the CSV file is C:\Data\MyData.csv:

select * from C:\Data\MyData.csv

Also, using the ODBC DSN config utility, you can define the names and data types of the columns in the file. If you do this, you can access the column names in your sql statement and get back converted data types. Otherwise, I believe it just returns columns named F1, F2, F3, etc, all being varchar(255).

onwards and upwards...

i++ and i = i + 1

Hi,

I looked at the asm code in VC Disassembly for the following codes:
i++;
i = i+1;

Both are same.

10: i++;
0040D75F mov eax,dword ptr [ebp-8]
0040D762 add eax,1
0040D765 mov dword ptr [ebp-8],eax
11: i = i+1;
0040D768 mov ecx,dword ptr [ebp-8]
0040D76B add ecx,1
0040D76E mov dword ptr [ebp-8],ecx

But I studied in my computer classes that i++ is faster than = i+1.

How?

Thank you.

it depends on the context.

like for example

k = somefunctioncall(i+1);<br />
i = i +1;

or

k = somefunctioncall(++i);

so here the secound one is faster than the first one

It has been a while since I did any C++ admitidly, I'm sure that the second example will pass a difference value into somefunctioncall because i++ is a postfix operation, i is passed into the function then updated, while i+1 will evaluate first then get passed into the function.
