Hi David, thanks for your input.
I might try that to see if it works in my application, however as you rightly said it's likely to pick up quite a few entries that I don't want so as I said to Mycroft I think I've decided not to go ahead with it. I'll let you know if that works though.
Regards,
Chris Chambers.

I think Mycroft is right.
And if all else fails, you could still use substrings and go for an exact match of the first N characters.

Id Credit Debit CurrentCredit Current Debit
51 21500 0 21500 0
52 0 21500 0 0
89 0 2150 0 2150
93 0 2140 0 4290
128 2140.5 0 0 2149.5
129 2151.5 0 2 0
171 0 1628 0 1626
190 1628 0 2 0
i have column of credit and debit and want to get columns of current credit and current debit
example:
51. credit=21500 and debit=0
i have credit more than debit so this increase credit and decrease debit
then
current credit = 0+21500
52. credit=0 and debit=21500
i have debit more than credit so this decrease credit and increase debit
then current credit =0 and current debit =0
89 credit=0 and debit =2150
i have debit more than credit so this decrease credit and increase debit
then current credit =0 and current debit=0+2150=2150
93 credit=0 and debit =2140
i have debit more than credit so this decrease credit and increase debit
then current credit =0 and current debit=2140+2150= 4290
and so on...

That's very interesting. Is there a question in there?

|

|

Are you just looking for this?
SELECT SUM(CurrentCredit) - SUM(CurrentDebit) AS FinalBalance FROM myTable

Hi
I have a table with duplicate rows and distinct id. I have written a select query using distinct and selecting only required fields to avoid duplicates.
Select dictinct(occassion), startdate from table1
Now what i want is to give unique row number to each distict row
For this i tried as below but could not succeed
Declare @num int
set @num =0
select (set @num = @num+1) as num,
dictinct(occassion), startdate from table1
After search in google , i got row_number(). But this i am unable to use as i am using distinct. Can u pls let me know how i can achieve this.
Thanks in advance

What are you going to do with the unique row number? How will it assist you? Where are you using it?
|

Hi
Thanks for the reply.
It is very useful for me. As i will use it in my web page (front end) where other functionality related to this unique number is related to.
Please help me to get this.

hi all,
would like to receive help on how to connect to a magic software database using vb.net.
thank you very much.
|
|
|
|
|
I'll bite, if you can't find something at connectionstrings.com then you need to go back to the vendor. Never heard of it before!

I came across Magic Software back in the early 90's, I have to say (at the time) it was very inmpressive but too expensive for the company I was employed by at the time. I haven't come across it since, so I assumed like many other companies, it had gone under. Great product, dodgy name

Well have a rat around the management studio, sysobjects also has lots of info.
Take a look at the system views, they are design to give you info on your databases.

|

Right Click your database in Object Explorer, Select Reports - Standard Reports - Disk Usage
explore these reports for common reqs.

Size is the size of mdf and ldf file in 8K pages. Divide the value by 128 to get the size in MB.
It might come same with/without data depending upon the amount of data your DB holds.

Hi,
Hi,We are migrating our DB from MS Access to SqlServer 2005. So could anybody please let me know how to copy the data in MS Access tables, first to an XML file and then to a table in Sql Server 2005, using C# as programming language and .NET 2005 as platform.
Thanks & Regards

What happenned to your migrate from Access to SQL - what you are trying is not the best way of doing it.
If you assume that SQL Server can read a datatable written as an xml file you could read the table into the client C# and wtrite it out using datatable.writexml(filename)
