The generic answer is to use a cursor.
Specifically it really depends on the database engine - for instance in Oracle PL/SQL you can use a loop command to iterate through a table.

There are many other ways besides using a cursor, which have inherent problems depending on the situation.

That doesn't sound like a good idea to me.
All major databases provide alternatives to that. Oracle certainly does.
At this point I am not sure that answer isn't just wrong.

I think I may be misunderstanding his question - I understood him to be asking how does one iterate through a result that returns multiple rows one row at a time...
Since it does not sound like a good idea, to you, could you provide me with better suggestions please as I always want to learn from my mistakes - thanks.

If you want to return one record then you should construct the query to do just that.
|
|
|
|

Sure but given:
"I understood him to be asking how does one iterate through a result that returns multiple rows one row at a time"
How would you do this without a cursor?

This is the C# forum.
So the correct way to do that would be to return the result set (complete or subset) and interate it in C#.
But if one wants to return on record then one structures the query appropriately.

The easiest way is to use the DISTINCT clause.
EDIT: I do not know who downvoted my answer and why. But let me explain to you why I suggested DISTINCT and not TOP as suggested by other posters. A part of the question is
love yadav wrote: where many records of same types exist
That means the OP wants to return one record from each type (each set of distinct values) and not just the first row. TOP 1 will return just the first row not matter how many distinct values are there in the result set.

If you're using MySQL, you can say Limit 1

Top (1) could be an option. If you are talking about LINQ, try FirstOrDefault.

what i do to retrive the primary key of table which is autoincreamented in the table
|
|
|
|
|
|
Your going to have to describe a bit more what you're trying to do. Getting the value of the key depends on what you're really trying to retrieve and do with it.
|
|
|
|
|
|
There are three ways and each has a slightly different meaning:
1. SCOPE_IDENTITY()
2. @@IDENTITY
3. IDENT_CURRENT()
To know more, google these terms.

Hi,
I am working on a project where I receive an MP3 file used in the broadcast industry. However sometimes the MP3 file has dead air so to speak at the beginning and end of the file. I would like to be able to trim this automatically so that I can calculate the appropriate length of the MP3 file, and not broadcast the dead air.
Any idea how to trim the MP3 on both ends for silence?
Thank you and much appreciated,
Glenn

Along with Guy's response, this[^] article may help in determining the points where the silence ends and begins.

Hi,
I'm a bit puzzled here and feel silly asking this question. I know how to open a new URL, read the response back from the web, etc if I initiate the request. Where I'm stuck is how do I do this if I don't initiate the request.
Here is what I'm trying to do. A distribution center is going to call my Web Server via a Web Service. I'm supposed to obtain the fields of information they are passing to me via a Web GET request. How is this done?
Thank you,
Glenn

There is a WebRequest object that allows you to make http requests, see this for a specific answer to your question: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/307023[^]
Normally, when consuming web-services, the client uses a set proxy class generated from a web service description. This creates intermediary classes for sending the data up and down the wire and proxy classes to handle the consumption of the remote methods. If you are consuming a third party service, it is worth asking the provider how to generate these first as hand-rolling can be a PITA. If you are writing the services yourself, you'll be able to just add the service as a reference. Right click the client project and select "Add service reference" and point it at your definition. Both ASMX (IIRC) and WCF services provide service definitions out the box.

We have no idea what you're app does, what is uses, other than Office, or what file it's looking for. Most of the error details you posted are utterly useless. The only useful bit what the FileNotFound exception.
Does the machine have the appropriate version of Office installed?? If not, you need to install it. The office Interop library is not enough.
If your code is using OleDb to read the data in an Excel file, you'll have to specify that. The connection string you used would also need to be shown.

thank u so much for ur reply 
after ur reply
i tried to run my project without using excel module
and related dll and still i got this error........
mainly i used dll
- imapi2.interop
- Interop.IWshRuntimeLibrary : to create shortcut file
- Interop.shell32
- Interop.WbemScripting
that's all...........
now i m more confused. project executed on win7 with 64 bit AMD Processor
but failed on Vista with 64bit AMD processor... 
|
|
|
|
|
It fails probably because of IMAPI2.
Create a Setup project in your solution so you can install your application on another machine and have the stuff that's missing installed.
Not every machine has all of this stuff available to your app, so you have to make sure you bring it with you.

after ur suggestion i tried myproject without using
imapi2 dll but still i got this error.
ok i don't know exactly but may be there is compatibility issue

thank u ..........
