As others have said, I'd leave the primary indicator in the address table, not the account table.
Conceivably, the primary address for an account could change, in which case the address table is updated. The account hasn't changed - the primary address has.
Again, as others have noted, create an acount view that includes the primary address.
To that extent, create an account view that shows all addresses and denotes which one is primary.

Using an account view is a good idea. Thank you!

Please, see this: Oracle Provider for OLE DB[^] to create a linked server to access an Oracle database instance.
I hope it will be helpful.

As Val only returns numbers until the first non number is found, there is no out of the box solution
I would have a read of this
Get only the number from a string, T-SQL???[^]

You might be able to use OPENROWSET, at least it is a avenue of research!

Well I'll be dammed, thinking about it you can do a linked server to Oracle so it should be logical that the MySQL has been solved as well. Have 5.

In a LAN with multiple computers, a few machines installed MySQL you can use the command line in cmd.exe (or any software) to know how many LAN computers are not installed MySQL ? for example in SQL Server have command line: osql -L

I’ve tried writing queries but they just don’t work. I tried joining tables, selecting the tables more than once and renaming it using AS.
I’d like to know if my desired output is really possible with mere using access sql ?? I need the query to set in my datatable for the gridview control. I am thinking of creating multiple datatable and assign them to one gridview instead of writing this complex query. But if there is a sql solution for this, I will stick to sql. Please share your ideas. Thank you.
I’ve been stuck with this problem, it’s like I’m trying to turn my rows into column. Here are my tables and the desired output.

This article [^]may help, it is designed to work with SQL Server, I don't know if it will work with Access.
It requires 2 nested queries, fist prepare your data so you have exactly what is required (join the table) and get the column names to pivot on (Date/Times). This pivot the data on the date/time column.

Hi...
What the advantages are of object oriented programming over Procedural coding? Thank you... 
|
|
|

You could easily discover papers on the subject through a Google search. Also, this forum is for questions about using Database software.

Wrong forum. And it's it's a situational thing; use the right tool for the right job.

The most obvious one to me is readability; in the procedural days I was often passing a structure to each procedure as a param (to avoid using a global var, which is even uglier) - now it's nicely embedded in the object as a private field.
There's more advantages which improve life, like inheritance. If it's homework, I'd recommend the Wikipedia; it'll be more complete in it's definitions.

Procedural coding is about procedures/functions. We write procedures which just take an input and produce an output. They don't have any kind of relation with another procedure. Sometimes they are just able to use some global or shared data when required.
OOP is all about objects. We do write procedures/functions in OOP, but the main thing is the class. A class has a relation; it can be a parent or base class, it can be a child class. And then we do things on the objects created by those classes. As classes have relation so we can say that the the objects of those classes do have the relations also.
For deeper understanding, you should check for articles online. Just google

Much of my current job involves combining data from various sources into one SQL Server database. One of the sources is a MySQL database and I have noticed something odd.
One of the first steps I take when I get access to a new data source is to investigate the schema. As a fan of ADO.net and database-agnosticism, my main tools for doing this are:
System.Data.Common.DbConnection.GetSchema() , System.Data.Common.DbConnection.GetSchema(string) , and System.Data.IDataReader.GetSchemaTable()
which every compliant ADO.net provider should implement.
The way I use GetSchemaTable is to cobble up a SELECT * FROM name WHERE 0=1 query for each table and view, call ExecuteReader, call GetSchemaTable, and display the results.
The WHERE 0=1 clause is intended to keep the server from doing a bunch of needless work, but just return an empty dataset. This works, but I have since found that it hides problems -- mostly related to views that are out of sync with their sources. So I removed the WHERE clause and was surprised that one column in one of the MySQL views was reported as Int64 rather than Int32 as it is when I use the WHERE clause.
I got the latest version of the MySQL Connector/net and the situation persists.
What I then found, by using GetSchema("VIEWS"), is that the column is defined like IF((id IS NOT NULL),id,NULL) AS 'id' (id is involved in a JOIN among several tables).
I don't have access the tables so I don't know what type the actual field is. And I see comments on the Web that IF can return unexpected types. I have been unable to reproduce the oddity in my own test database.
But my question is, "why use the IF function in this case?" How is this better than just returning id whether it's NULL or not? Is there some historical reason?
|
|
|
|

Is this id existing in more than one table and is therefore used as a join condition in the view?
About your question, why the use of the IF function, I can only speculate that the original developer had a brain fart.
Be excellent to each other. And... PARTY ON, DUDES!

Yes.
