If you're trying to use the article you mentioned before(www.codeproject.com/KB/miscctrl/data_dictionary.aspx[^]), the idea is that you place the macro in a new Word document (using macro editor), modify it and run it.
If it is something else you're after, please describe with more details.

Hi Rupesh,
The backup crated by the sql server can be stored only on the machine where the SQL server is installed. Just create a folder in SQLServer and give full permission to this folder and then try to create the backup. I hope it will work.
Thx

Now, a question for YOU. Which takes longer, typing it in to CP and waiting for a reply, or typing in into query analyser and running it?
A clue, try the CASE statement.

Hi there,
I think you might want to use a CASE statement. Not sure which database system you are using but it would look something like this...
SELECT
column1,
column2,
CASE column3 WHEN 0 THEN 'Z' ELSE 'C' END
FROM table1
Cheers,

In order to help you, you should specify, what is the problem you're experiencing. If it's an error message, post the actual message you get.

better start building that!!!
ask later when stuck, nobody will post you the entire code you know?! 
Helpers will direct you to some article or debug some of your code.
Good luck

Hi, I'm working on a site similar to newegg.com and I'm kinda stuck on the filters.
I know the best way would be javascript, however i don't know any library that can accomplish filters like those. So i was doing it in the old way (php > mysql query)
The problem is the optimization, i can't find a good method to do this. i designed the tables this way..
table item {item_id,category_id}
1,1
2,1
3,2
4,1
table filter {item_id,filter_id}
1,100
1,101
1,102
2,99
2,100
3,0
4,5
4,102
Let's say i want to show all items from cateogry 1, so i need to create the filters to be shown. the filters should be something like this
Filter | quantity of items
100 (2)
101 (1)
102 (2)
99 (1)
5 (1)
this is my query
select count(filter_id), filter_id
from filter
where item_id in (select item_id from item where category_id = 1)
and filter_id not in () -- this isn't used in first instance, only when an user click on a filter.
group by filter_id
That's the easy part, now if an user select a filter i need to show the items filtered. This is what i use.
select *
from item
where item_id in (
-- this is only for removing the null results
select item_id
from (
select
-- this shows only those items that have all the filter_id selected by the user
case when count(*) = ".count(explode(',',validateFilters($_GET['filters'])))." then item_id end
from filter
where filter_id in ( ".validateFilters($_GET['filters'])." )
group by item_id
) as p
where item_id is not null
)
and category = 1
and then i have to use that query inside the filter query to get the new filters
select count(filter_id), filter_id
from filter
where item_id in ( all the query above)
and filter_id not in ( ".validateFilters($_GET['filters'])." )
group by filter_id
is there an easier way?
Thank You.

Hi,
I was just thinking, when is it the best to put an index on a foreign key? What I mean, how much records must there be? Lets say I have a customer table with a TitleId field which links to a title table, and the title table has like 10 records, is it still wise to put an index on TitleId in the customer table?
Thanks
Brendan

Rule of thumb is to create the foreign key index always. Typically the indexes may be quite small but they have a very positive impact on system throughput.

Thanks I will do just that!

Hi ! I'm a beginner at transact sql and I have a question.
I have a table named person and a table named event.
person has columns personID, personName
event table has columns: eventID, eventName, date
My situation is that I want to know which persons that will go to which event so i have a table called
eventPerson
eventPerson has columns: eventID, personID
How do I construct a question in Transact SQL that returns a table over which persons that goes to wich event
The result would look someting like this
EventNo1 EventNo2 EventNo3
peter 1 0 1
lucy 1 0 1
john 0 1 1
So what I want is a matrix with boolean values. Columns is event. rows is person.
|
|
|
|

your query is something like this:
select persons.*,event.*,eventPerson.*<br />
from person,event,eventperson<br />
where person.id = eventperson.id and event.id = eventperson.id

How can we do:
insert into table (name) values ('nick's')
in sql server.
I tried using :
insert into table (name) values ('nick\'s')
insert into table (name) values ("nick's")
but still could not find the solution. I need to execute the query not from stored procedure. Thanks.
