  • RE: Normalization Question

    I need definitions for the source tables and a clear explanation of what end result you're trying to get.

    Here's part of what you posted as a sample result:

    Program,Year,Major

    Education,2008,NULL

    Education,2009,NULL

    Education,2010,NULL

    So it boils down to semantics. I worded my question wrong. lol The intent is still the same. You know what I am getting at. That's the real debate...

  • RE: Trigger Help??

    In your sub-query, use "inserted" instead of "EncoreCompanyT.dbo.LotTransactions". In triggers, you have two "tables" called "inserted" and "deleted". "deleted" has the "before" data, "inserted" has the "after" data....

  • RE: Normalization Question

    From what I can see of your table, you have essentially a full cartesian join of three tables: Program, Year, Major. That means you have a number of rows...

  • RE: DDL Trigger On Database -Issues

    I just tried this on an SQL 2005 server:

    There is a large bit of irony in someone saying my only flaw is humility.

    I have already been working with a cloud based email and messaging system.

    It is called Hotmail......
