Upon submit, the new values are updated in all corresponding tables (the function of the pages in question). However, on the page that does the DB update, I also want to do some checks on the data before performing the update. Now, the problem that I am...

I need to extract data from this table to find the lowest prices of each product as of today. The product will be listed/grouped by the name only, discarding the product code - I use SUBSTRING(ProductName, 1, CHARINDEX('(', ProductName)-2). I can get this result, but I had to use several views (totally inefficient). I think this can be done in one efficient/fast query, but I can't think of one. In the case that one query is not...

I have two tables, WIDGETS and VERSIONS. The WIDGETS table has descriptive information about the widgets while the VERSIONS table contains IDs relating to different iterations of those widgets over the years. The idea is that from any widget in the database you can look forward and backward to see different versions of the widget through the years. Here are the tables: WIDGETS widget_id name

I have designed a form that has 5 different list boxes where the selections within each are used as criteria in building a dynamic query. Some boxes are set for multiple selections but these list boxes do not necessarily need to have a selection made to be used in the dynamic query. In essence the form can have selections made in all or none of its list boxes to form the dynamic query I am looking to get some feedback in reference to...

I am using MS Office Access 2003 (11.5614). My basic question is can I run a query of a query datasheet. I want to use more that one criteria and can not get that query to work. I thought I might be able to accomplish the results in two steps by using two queries. If this is possible how can I do it? Thank you, Stan Hanna

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>". The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed. This is as boiled down as I can make it. Here is my compilation command: g++-12 -std=c++20 -Wnarrowing bit_field.cpp Here is the code in...
