That´s what a friend was fed from school (I´m not schooled).
So I Assumed it was standard, mostly because it makes sense.
Not that i trust the school since they had a web developer program with a C# winform ball game exam and didnt touch php at all.

I would trust the school a lot less if they taught PHP.
Schools shouldn't teach languages, they should teach programming.
C# in contrary to PHP enforces a lot of good habits.
Not that you can't program properly in PHP, you certainly can.
But this is a subject that others are much better at answering then I am.
The best place to ask about this subject is probably the Lounge, but make damn sure it's not formed as a programming question but rather a discussion subject, or you might be well fried.

I´m not gonna start a programming language war.
My point was they shouldnt call it a web development course if they will spend 80% of the time making offline C# and java applications.
It should be called "dip your toes into the programming water" course.

It already hurts to read that. Normalize to 3NF, or better yet, BCNF. Denormalization should only be done when one can explain the trade-offs made, and the advantage gained.

Only if you take a religious stance on optional fields. The other "recommendations" wouldn't impact the typical data-operations, nor complicate your queries.

 Its not something I'm following, I prefer to get it as right as possible in the first go. I completely agree with you.
It's just something I added to tease someone.
With complicated I'm referring to that you get more to do the more tables you have, and the more tables with relations you have the more you have to do things in the right order.
Each little operation is simple.

Why do you move the "Sheets" to a new table, it's still the same entity, isn't it?
I would rather create a Sheet table with a status column, and let the production table and the control_measures table refer to it instead.

I wasnt clear in my explanation but that was what i meant on how to solve the normalization.
Quote: Why do you move the "Sheets" to a new table, it's still the same entity, isn't it?
I will try to explain.
The production table stores shifttime and orders.
So a new record will be added on new shifts or new order.
When they are producing the final product, they also measure,controls and package sheets in stacks.
So instead of having sheets stored over order/shift I want to store it on each stack.
(One record for each stack in control_measures which is related to their shifts production table).
Storing sheets in control_measures gives higher "resolution" and better data to serve to our customers.
But only possible when producing the final product.

I believe I got stuck on the first paragraph in your OP.
This sounds better, but I have too little info or domain knowledge to make a proper comment.

how can I establish a link between two of my database server which have the platform sql
|

|

Very easy to do. Like this:
USE[master]
EXEC sp_addlinkedserver N'{computer}\{database},
N'SQL Server'
Literally ...

I have a database that receives weather information. The main table is (somewhat simplified)
LocationID int, Hour int, HiTemp Float, LoTemp Float, TimedTemp Float
Temperature data is first written to a holding table - LocationID int, Hour int, whichVariable int, value float. Then it is merged into the main table (using a MERGE statement)
All this works fine when the temperature data written to the holding table goes in one variable at a time, executes the MERGE, loads the next variable, etc.
If I have multiple programs adding multiple locations and different variables all at the same time, the system deadlocks. I could force one instance of the outside program inserting the data to use a mutex to guarantee undisturbed calls to MERGE but it is quite possible we will have multiple instances of the outside program running.
What is the best approach to take to allow merging of the data?

Why are you using merge instead of an insert?

The routine uses the MERGE statement to determine if a record for the particular observation exists. If it does not, it inserts a new record. If a record does exist, it updates the appropriate field.
Problem comes in that there are three raw import records for the particular observation. So the first merge may try to insert something for a high temperature while at the same time the system is trying to insert for the low temperature.
I can use a cursor to cycle through the imported data row by row but want to avoid the speed hit.
I also can't change the main table to hold a record for each individual type of temperature because of the huge number of records (~17 million per observation cycle)

Have only one thread perform the MERGE portion?
|

Here's an idea:
Set up a table that is a queue table.
Just insert all the data into this table - no merge needed.
Then you have one process that reads from this table performing merges and deleting the row from the queue once the merge has been performed.
As you are only performing inserts then deletes on the queue I can't see a deadlock occurring on the queue - as the process will be issuing one merge at a time you should avoids deadlocks on your merge table too.

I used a mutex to control the calls to the MERGE sections and it is running. If performance becomes and issue, I will split the program in two so a multi threaded section pulls data and inserts to a temporary table and a single threaded program calls for merging the data.
|
|
|
|

Sounds good - I always revert to the old carving code in stone method when all else fails so I hope the mutex works

How would you think that we would know how you added a calendar to your site? We cannot see your project, your code or read your mind. Besides that, what does your calendar on your site have to do with a database?
|
|
|
|

ZZzaaaappp take a look on your desk you will find a brand new calendar in the burnt bit on the corner - just take it out to your site and nail it to the entrance.
Your question makes as much sense as my response. Read the guide lines [^] and ask a sensible question in the correct forum (probably the ASP forum)

Wrong forum. You could find many HTML/javascript calendars in web. Please use Google.
