I will let you know if you win or not! Just one second please!

I suspect the window.print() function returns immediately btw, so the page may well change straight away, rather than after the user clicks OK in the Print dialog.

Ahh I see what you're saying. I can't test it right now, but I'll let you know how I make out. Thanks!

You're trying to make it too easy. Computers are supposed to be too hard for mere users. That's why they pay us to come over and click the "print" button.

I suppose but I'm a sucker for automation!

As long as it breaks and causes extreme frustration and panic...

When I want to show my power I reboot the mail server!

I think I'm approaching this from the wrong angle. I think I'd be better served if I put my effort into the SQL Server Reporting Service.

 

Have you or anyone here used it?

I've not used it - no idea if anyone else has though.

I can fumble through most of it, but I'm having a hard time getting it to perform some math and getting it to let me select what I want from the database.

 

Think I'm going to buy a book about it.

The point is not to show YOUR power (which frankly, there is none, but I'm not telling), but THEIR abject helplessness (of which there is a copious, abundant and boundless supply, until the end of time, oh lord).

 

The easiest way to do that is to go out and get smashed, then show up for work the next day. Enjoy.

I'm not sure showing up for work smashed is going to do much on a weekend.

It's going to do great things. GREAT. THINGS. Oh yee of little fathe...

Pete - These numbers are what I get if I query a table in my db. How can I add ONLY the positive numbers and ignore the negatives?

 

-114.68
79.50
-8.48
2221.93
3994.88
-142.04
2655.45
-157.36
1084.00
-108.40
986.85
-58.48
15258.80

Uh.... like this:

Select sum (colname)
from table
where colname > 0

?

What is your schedule looking like this fine day? I need you to hold my hand and whisper in my ear!

Dunno. Ask me again in an hour, when I've eaten and might be more awake.

k thanks you handsome man!

OK I'm having a hell of a time getting the summing to work, do you think you can assist?

 

I've attached the code and the output thus far.

 

Thanks!

Hmm, this is kinda strange. It you look at the ungrouped output you can see that the numbers returned are correct. So where am I messing up Peter?

I've changed my code a bit: I moved the bit that zero's out the total and tests for a negative to the query output area.
