These were in a solution and I thought I'd note them on my site so I can refer to them more easily.
How?
SELECT EmployeeNo , DaysOffSick , DateOfSickness FROM Employees_Attendance_Table -- yields EmployeeNo DaysOffSick DateOfSickness -------------- -------------- ---------------- 001 1.00 1997-11-17 002 3.00 2000-02-18 003 2.00 1999-02-25
EmployeeNo DaysOffSick DateOfSickness -------------- -------------- ---------------- 001 1.00 1997-11-17 002 1.00 2000-02-18 002 1.00 2000-02-19 002 1.00 2000-02-20 003 1.00 1999-02-25 003 1.00 1999-02-26 -- note the dates increment and do not account for days off (eg. Saturday / Sunday)
String1.String2.String3.String4 1 5 10 15 20 25 30 -> length = 31
Before: StudentID StudentName DateOfBirth ----------- -------------------- ------------- 1 John Smith 1990-03-21 2 Fred Bloggs 1988-11-02 3 Another User 1985-07-11 4 Yet Another User 1977-06-25 After: StudentID StudentName DateOfBirth ----------- -------------------- ------------- 1 PDUHjRWJcb 1926-01-02 2 WRmNqQKxvuV 1969-03-14 3 nBCkAVDrvdhe 1968-05-05 4 RJDsFMaeNcLrcMWw 1964-08-08
