    Quick questions About SQL Server 2000

    Hi

    Hope you can help me with some quick answers to these questions...

    Does shrinking a db undo the index rebuilds?

    Is the log truncated automatically after doing a full backup?

    Ive a database with a 350MB table A (750K rows) and 90MB table B(3.5M rows), it comes in at 1.3GB on disk after backup / truncate/shrink/ index rebuild. The indexes are relavant i feel. I know that i should normalize table...

    All im doing is taking a pdf booklet and plodding it on the web (bad design basis for website i know, no need to say!), instead of making each whole page a graphic screenshot that sits in the centre of the webbrowser i want to keep the text areas as real text for seo purposes, as each page is a rectangle, would i not get away with a centred table and then use absolute lengths to divide the internal cells in this case just preserving internal lay...

    How do i put a border around my page

    Hello

    Ive designed a simple webpage using tables to lay it out. I would like to put a border around the outside of the it, sort of so that when it loads it looks like a poster. Ive though of creating a row top and bottom and then a column either side to hold pics of straight lines but would they always join up at the corners?

    Also, if im designing for 1024 x768 screens, which i presume is standard now? What size should...

  • Is my use of the AfterUpdate and Current Events dangerous?

    Hi

    I have a form bound to a stored procedure. I have made it that on changing the value of a list box the form moves forward a record.

    I have done this using the afterupdate event of the list box. Initially the listbox was bound, but i noticed that when i automatically moved forward the listbox got out of sync with the record source. I got round this by making the list box control unbound and using vba to keep it in...

  • To clarify

    In the forms property page the recordsource of the form is set to the name of the stored procedure.

    The Input parameters property of the form will contain the parameters that the stored procedures requires.
    This works fine for stored procs that require integer or string datatypes eg

    @intMyParam1 = 6, @strMyParam2 = 'xyz'

    Would work fine, but i need to know the syntax to pass times...

  • Calculating amount of time that falls into a specific range

    Hello

    Can someone help me with this one please! Im working on a service level tracking database which records the times that a service goes down during the day (DowntimeStart/DowntimeEnd) and compares this to the times that it is required to be available (SLAStart/SLAEnd). I want to return the amount of time the service was down during the SLA period in minutes.
    Code:
    Date,    DowntimeStart,  DowntimeEnd, SLAStart, SLAEnd
    1/1/08,

  • Im quite new to this as weel, as far as im aware you can get the same effect as using JOIN by using a WHERE clause, in fact using the where clause is reffered to as the old style of joining tables.

    The syntax is as follows.....

    ANSI Style
    select * from a join b on a.id = b.id

    Old Style
    select * from a, b where a.id = b.id

    Is this what your getting at?

    replied to Applying payments to invoices
    When you add a subform to a form it gives you an option to set the subform to be filtered by a field on the parent form during the wizard, just choose the relevant fields on the forms.

    Alternatively, to filter (any) form in VBA code, you set the forms filter property to a filter expression, and then set the forms FilterOn property to True.

    eg.

    Say you had an unbound combo box (named combo1) which lists...

    replied to Applying payments to invoices
    I suppose youll have to decide the table structure for handling payments then

    You could have something like

    Table: Payments

    Fields:
    PaymentID
    TenantID
    PaymentDate
    PaymentType
    PaymentAmount
    PaymentNotes

    Table: InvoicePayments
    PaymentID
    InvoiceID
    AmountofPayment

    So when a payment comes in its Recorded in the Payments...

    Hi

    Im sorry i follow you up to the point were you describe the subform, "it includes all of the options"???

    Do you mean the subform has eight combos as well with the same drop down options as the main form?

    Hi

    I was thinking about this a while back for a project that never went ahead. At the time i was going to look at the Northwind sample database that comes with access to see if there was anything in there that could be used.

    What is your table structure at the moment.
