Adam Brett Orixa Systems | I have a record which has a group of child records.
The child records contain a boolean field. For the master record, if ANY of the child record-boolean fields is true I need to take an action. At present the best SQL I can write is: IF('TRUE' IN (REPLACE('FALSE,' WITH '' IN LIST(CAST(SD.ActionRequired as VARCHAR)))) then 8 else 7) as StateID, This seems heavy-handed, as I would expect there to be some sort of "boolean summing" function available somewhere but I can't see any. |

After thinking about it, I think I know what you're trying to do. However, if you send your existing SQL (and/or table structures), I can tell you exactly what the SQL should be. Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |
