Hello
I'm trying to redisplay and reorganize some data off a huge Excel
spreadsheet. I figured it would be easier to manipulate if I dumped the
data into MySQL with the help of phpMyAdmin.
I'm a newbie to MySQL and PHP and/or Perl so if someone can lead me in the
right direction to accomplish the following.
I have a database with 1 table from 5 columns of data.
Column 1 Column 2 Column 3 Column 4 Column 5
UniqueID A Param1 1Av1 1Av2 1Av3
UniqueID A Param2 2Av1 2Av2 2Av3
UniqueID A Param3 3Av1 3Av2 3Av3
UniqueID A ...
UniqueID A ...
UniqueID A ParamN Values of ParamN (")
UniqueID B Param1 1Bv1 1Bv2 1Bv3
UniqueID B Param2 2Bv1 2Bv2 2Bv3
UniqueID B Param3 3Bv1 3Bv2 3Bv3
UniqueID B ...
UniqueID B ...
UniqueID B ParamN Values of ParamN (")
UniqueID C Param1 1Cv1 1Cv2 1Cv3
UniqueID C Param2 2Cv1 2Cv2 2Cv3
UniqueID C Param3 3Cv1 3Cv2 3Cv3
UniqueID C ...
UniqueID C ...
UniqueID C ParamN Values of ParamN (")
I want to transpose these data to
Unique ID Param1 Param2 Param3 ... ParamN
A All Corresponding Values ie. v1, v2, v3 for each ID
B All Corresponding Values "
C All Corresponding Values "
The Pivot Table in Excel seems to be perfect for this except that I can't
get it to display the actual data values for each Unique ID as opposed to
Summaries, Count etc.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

i'm a bit confused by what you mean, but i doubt mysql will help you
very much. If i were in a similar situation, i'd persist with the Excel
pivot table, or, if some scripting is called for, i'd be using VBA in
Excel. For adhoc data manipulation, Access might be better.

Then the only way you can do it that I can think of is to write a PHP script

Hi,
I know about stored procedures and that they can speed up data entry via the
SQL 'insert ' statement.
However, one drawback to this method is that using the stored procedure
still requires one to manually and individually enter each and every record
to be inserted to the database before the procedure is executed.
I want to circumvent this tedium by finding a way to use maybe a VB
application that prompts a user for the data to be...

Is there a way to have the data controls re-populated with the previous data

I currently have the following code to display the error message, but would
like to re-populate the data:

If (Not e.Exception Is Nothing) Then
