I'm starting to toss around ideas to see how I can accomplish this:
I have a SQL table for awards that I connect thru ODBC. It has and ID
field(PK) and 40 sets fields (award, date, number awarded). Over the years
there has been different ways of how these awards were entered:
-sometimes sequentially thru the fields
-sometimes by type (certain awards go in certain fields)
-sometimes in any order the puncher felt like
Needless to say, the data is in disarray. What I want to do is reorder the
data by the award precedence (which I have a seperate table made) taking into
account the various empty fields a record will have. Basically to push 'up'
all the data to the front of the table (in precedence order).
Any thoughts/ideas on how I might tackle this? I await your genius.
