It can't be dynamic, really.You can sort of do a dynamic view with an inline-table UDF, which is essentially a view with input parameters.A stored procedure could take an input parameter of which type of account you want to look at, based on a value passed by the application, and could select different things from different objects (tables, views, UDFs) based on the inputs.But I'm not sure if that's what you're trying to do or not.Mon, 24 Sep 2012 13:07:34 GMTGSquaredhttp://www.sqlservercentral.com/Forums/Topic1363687-391-1.aspxWe have a existing system full of accounts. There is a requirement that any new accounts are to be divided into "Funds". Initially two funds will be created. An account can be in either fund 1 or fund 2, and possibly both. We decided that a mapping table of funds and accounts be sufficient for this.A front end instance can be logging into just one fund at a time.Now comes the tricky part. We need to change the code to reflect this new behavior. We think replacing any select to the Account table with a view that joins on account and fund will do the trick. (it would return just the account rows specific to that fund) When a user logs into the UI they will select the fund they want to view. What's the best option to allow the view to display the correct fund dynamically? Keep in mind the user could have two different instances open with different fund accounts. (we envision this to be default behavior for most users) We want to avoid having to change the where clause in all our queries.Any ideas?Mon, 24 Sep 2012 12:59:03 GMTMindy Hreczuck
