how to sum some field in a row

[rsrinivasan]

Hi all,
I am using SQLSERVER 2000.

I have one table with the following structure,

No Name H1 H2 H3 .. H100
101 John 23 45 67 45
102 Smith 22 56 58 56
103 Greg 11 56 78 44

I want to sum H1, H2, H3, H4...H100. How should i do it?

Thanks in advance,

Are you sure you have the most efficient design?
A table with a hundred columns.
You could add all the columns with a WHILE loop.
Or could do something like H1+H2+H3+H4 ... AS totals
Are you sure the DB structure should not be

members
id    name
101   John 
102   Smith 
103   Greg 
 
scores
id   value
101    23
101    45 
101    67
101    45
102    22
102    56

Good design such as code greens turns complicated tasks into simple ones :)

Also makes changing it from 100 numbers to 200 easier.

Just insert the extra rows required

instead of more columns and then changing all your insert and calculation queries to handle the extra columns.
