From: --CELKO-- on 3 Jul 2010 09:47 Please post DDL, so that people do not have to guess what the keys, constraints, Declarative Referential Integrity, data types, etc. in your schema are. If you know how, follow ISO-11179 data element naming conventions and formatting rules. Temporal data should use ISO-8601 formats. Code should be in Standard SQL as much as possible and not local dialect. Sample data is also a good idea, along with clear specifications. It is very hard to debug code when you do not let us see it. If you want to learn how to ask a question on a Newsgroup, look at: http://www.catb.org/~esr/faqs/smart-questions.html What you have done is violate First Normal Form (1NF) and attempted to do formatting in the database in violation of a tiered architecture. Look up the term "repeating group" in any intro RDBMS book. I hope you really needed FLOAT and have a floating point processor on your machine. If you don't know anything about RDBMS, then get a copy of the simplest intro book I know -- http://www.amazon.com/Manga-Guide-Databases-Mana-Takahashi/dp/1593271905 |
