Recordset for Reporting the Standings Structure of Sailors.mdb Introduction and Objective Sailors. mdb supports a hypothetical web site for competitive sailors. The web site includes pages to notify sailors of upcoming regattas, changes in rules, reports on past regattas, and personalized pages based on each sailor's interests. Additional features allow the posting and statistical analysis of regatta results and the ranking of sailors. Vocabulary and Business Rules Sailors, in this database are people who race sailboats. These people have the normal personal information such as names and nationalities, as well as an assigned professional class, which reflects their commitment and accomplishment in the sport of yachting. The most skilled sailors, those of Olympic caliber, are rated Professional Class 1 while those who compete at an amateur level are class 3. Boats are owned by Sailors. A boat has a name and an identifying sail number. Every boat is of a boat class. A Boat Class is a group of boats of the same shape, sail area and hull size, thus ensuring an even competition among the sailors. Sailors generally race in one class only and thus are not interested in information for boats of other classes. Sailors race under the aegis of yacht clubs, the organizations which typically sponsor regattas. Yacht clubs have an identifying flag called a club burgee, may have a web site, and each year a yacht club has a meeting at which time information for the season is disseminated. Larger boats are limited to sailing from clubs with a crane to hoist the boat from its trailer to the water. Competitions generally consist of a series of races (typically 3 to 10), which together constitute a regatta. Based on the results of regattas, sailors are ranked each month from first (most skilled) to 20th (least skilled). Appendix A Where to Download This database, in Access format, is available from the Wrox site. The procedures to create the queries for Microsoft SQL Server are also available from the same site in the file Sailors. sql. The end of this appendix lists the information to create the structure of the database by hand. Structure and Relationships of Tables The Sailors database contains five tables. There are no relationships permanently created, they are created in queries as needed. People Table Sailors are listed in the People table; each person is a record. The People table can be related to the Clubs table and to the boats table, since each sailor is a member of a club and most sailors own boats. In addition, the People table can be related to the Rank table. As in all tables of this database there is an ID field with a data type of autonumber. To keep the database small for the download, there are only twenty sailors. Boats Within the Boat table each record is a boat. The boats can be related to the People table by the PeopleiD as well as the Boat Class table. BoatCiass This table has only a few records, each representing a class of boats. It can only be directly related to the Boats table. Since all the boats of a given class have the same length, weight and sail area, this information is kept only in the Boat Class table. In our simple example there are just three classes. Rank Each record in the Rank table represents one sailor in one month of one year. Fields hold the sailor's ID as well as the rank number. This database covers the four months from December 1999 to March 2000. Clubs Each yacht club holds a record in this table. In addition to contact information, this table holds data for the URL of the club's home page. An image of the club burgee (flag) is held in two places, a file on the server and in a BLOB field in this table. Overview of Queries One group of queries, those beginning with qAll, merely list the records of the table. An exception is the qAllRankings query, which joins the People, Clubs and Rank tables to create a useful recordset for reporting the standings. A second group of queries begins with qparm. These are for demonstrating the use of passing parameters through the ADO command object. This group includes the qparminsert queries, which are called to append records to tables. 742 Structure of Sailors.mdb Structure of Tables Table Field Name Field Type Field Size Notes Boat Class ClassiD AutoNumber 4 Attributes: Fixed Size, Auto- Number (Long) Increment ClassName Text 50 ClassLength Number (Long) 4 ClassWeight Number (Long) 4 ClassEntered Date/Time 8 Format: Long Date Boats BoatsiD AutoNumber 4 attributes: Fixed Size Number (Long) Auto-Increment BoatName Text 50 Boatel ass Text 50 BoatLaunched Date/Time 8 BoatCertified Yes/No 1 BoatNote Memo Boat Photo OLE Object BoatValue Currency 8 Decimal Places: Auto Format: $#,##0.00;($#,##0. 00) 743 Appendix A Table Field Name Field Type Field Size Notes Clubs ClubiD AutoN umber 4 Attributes: Fixed Size Number (Long) Auto-Increment ClubCode Text so ClubName Text so ClubAnnualMeeting Date/Time 8 ClubDues Currency 8 Decimal Places: Auto Format: $#,##0.00;($#,##0. 00) ClubWWWSite Hyperlink ClubBurgeeFile Text 50 ClubBurgee OLE Object ClubHasCranes Yes/No 1 ClubMembership Number (Long) 4 ClubNote Memo People PeopleiD AutoN umber 4 Number (Long) PeopleNameLast Text 50 PeopleNameFirst Text 50 PeopleDOB Date/Time 8 Format: Short Date PeopleProfessionalClass Number (Long) 4 PeopleClubCode Text 50 PeopleReferee Yes/No 1 PeopleState Text so PeopleView Text 50 744 Structure of Sailors.mdb Table Field Name Field Type Field Size Notes Rank ID AutoN umber 4 Attributes: Fixed Size Number (Long) Auto-Increment SailoriD Number (Long) 4 Year Number (Long) 4 Month Number (Long) 4 Rank Number (Long) 4 Structure of Queries Query Name Query Details qAllBoatClasses SELECT BoatClass.ClassName FROM BoatClass ORDER BY BoatClass.ClassName; qAllBoatNames SELECT Boats.BoatName FROM Boats; qAllBoats SELECT Boats.BoatClass, Boats.BoatName FROM Boats ORDER BY Boats.BoatClass, Boats.BoatName; qAllClubs SELECT Clubs.ClubName, Clubs.ClubCode FROM Clubs ORDER BY Clubs.ClubName; qAllRankings SELECT People.PeopleiD, People.PeopleNameLast, People.PeopleNameFirst, Clubs.ClubName, Rank.Year, Rank.Month, Rank.

As the wholesaler contracts to buy clothing from manufacturers, the buyers post the items on the web site so they can be ordered by individual stores. Vocabulary and Business Rules An item refers to a given model (design) of clothing. An item is not one piece of clothing, but rather one offering by the wholesaler such as the "Mountain Walker" hiking trousers. Every item belongs to a department, such as Women's Sportswear or Men's Formalwear. In addition, each item has a type such as trousers, shirts, or hats. Items have a release date and since the wholesaler wants to show clothes as early as possible, they are frequently posted to the site prior to release. A quantity per box helps the sales staff

  • Chapter 9 Transact-SQL This Chapter Introduces the Many Options
    Transact-SQL Page 1 of 53 Chapter 9 Transact-SQL This chapter introduces the many options available for working with the SQL query language, along with the extensions and special features of Microsoft SQL Server/MSDE’s SQL dialect. The SQL standard was developed by the American National Standards Institute (ANSI) and the International Organization for Standardization (ISO). Today there are several standards whose names include the year in which they were released: SQL-89, SQL-92, and so on. The different standards vary in language functions and performance. Database vendors have fully or partially implemented the SQL standards in their products. Unfortunately, they have not yet agreed on a unified standard. Almost all have added their own extensions to the SQL implementations, so there are some significant differences among the SQL variations of individual products. Microsoft Access 2000 and Microsoft Access 2002 use Jet Engine 3.6—the database core for Access mdb databases—to support SQL-89 Level 1 with several extensions, as well as SQL-92 (albeit not completely) if you are using Jet Engine 4 with the ADO database interface. SQL Server/MSDE supports SQL-92, which for the most part conforms to the ANSI/ISO standard. The SQL language functions consist of two parts: The Data Definition Language (DDL) and the Data Manipulation Language (DML). With DDL, you can create, edit, and delete table structures and define indexes. The DML is used to query data or to edit and delete data. In Access, you usually only work with the DML, as tables and indexes are created with the tools available in Access.

  • Information Technology Module for Managers Database Design
    Information Technology Module for Managers Database Design Lesson No. 2 In this lesson you will come to know the history of database files and about Relational Database Management System (RDBMS). You will also come to know briefly about Client/Server computing. History of Files: From the inception of computing we know three types of files. They are: Sequential Model Navigational Model Relational Model We are now seeing the emergence of the fourth type: Object Model (along with relational/object hybrids) Along with the above evolution, there has been a shift of responsibility from the application to the database. For example: in sequential model, application was responsible for locating a record and enforcement of business rules. 1.1 Sequential Model Sequential files consist of fixed length records with fixed length fields. The old 80-column cards are example of this. A variation of this came later, when a character was used as a delimiter, instead of depending on the end of a record in fixed location. Visual Basic supports both these forms of sequential files. VB uses Open, Close and other variety of statements. An advantage of this sequential model is its simplicity. On the other hand the disadvantage is that search always begins from the first records and one after the other. Some improvements were introduced later whereby Random search became possible. 1.2 Navigational Model Also called Hierarchical Model. It was a major improvement. The detail of navigation is kept hidden from the developer so that the database did the dirty work of locating a record. Common examples were dBase and Btrieve files.

  • Developing a Web Enabled Database System: an Academic Project
    Session 1658 Developing a Web-Enabled Database System: An Academic Project Paul I-Hai Lin - Indiana University-Purdue University Fort Wayne Melissa Lin - University of Florida Aik Mon - GE Industrial Systems ABSTRACT Database and Web integration offers a cost effective way to provide value added access to data stored at multiple locations through a Web browser. This paper discusses two methodologies for implementing a remote database query systems using Web browsers. I. Introduction In May 2000, we developed a Web-enabled alumni database for remote access by our faculty and staff. The alumni database was created from a spread sheet that contains the following fields: Title, Last Name, First Name, Middle Initial, Degree Received, Major, Graduation Date, Address, City, State, Zip code, Email address, Phone, Employer, ID, Last Gift Amount, Last Gift date, and Total Gift Amount. The developed Web-based alumni database has the following capabilities: • View data records for all alumni (20 records per screen) • Find a specific alumnus or group of alumni by their Last Name, First Name, Graduation Date, City, State, or Employer • Update specific fields on alumni data records • Update, delete, and add alumni records to database Although the data warehouse and Web-enabled databases are well known and matured in commercial sector, for us, this is a new challenging and requires additional research. This paper is not intended to provide a comprehensive study report of tools and architectures for building database and Web integration systems. However, the Internet protocols, languages and tools, databases, Web servers, CGI, and server-side scripting are highlighted in various sections to help the selections of programming tools, system platform, Web servers, and databases for this Web- enabled alumni database system.

There is now an identifiable trend in industry toward downsizing that is replacing expensive mainframe computers with more cost-effective networks of personal computer that achieve the same or even better results. This trend has given rise to the architecture of the Client/Server Computing. The term Client/Server was first used in the 1980s in reference to personal computers on a network. The actual Client/Server model started gaining acceptance in the late 1980s. The term Client/Server is used to describe a computing model for the development of computerized systems. This model is based on the distribution of functions between two types of independent and autonomous entities: Server and Client. A Client is any process that request specific services from server processes. A Server is process that provides requested services for Clients. Or in other words, we can say “A client is defined as a requester of services and a server is defined as the provider of services.” A single machine can be both a client and a server depending on the software configuration.

  • More SOL- Salutions to Common Problems
    APPENDIX A More SOL- Salutions to Common Problems Problem 1: Begin a Label Report at Any Label on the Sheet MosT LABEL RuNs leave unused labels an the last sheet. The following technique will start a label run at a specific label position, so you can use those partially used sheets. The components are a form, a temporary table, and a label report. You'll use the form to identify the position of the first available label. Then, an event procedure will populate the temporary table with blank rows, with one blank row for each missing label. The number of blank rows is determined by the value you enter. Ifyou enter a value of 3 (meaning that the first label is in the third label position), the procedure will add two blank rows. Next, the procedure appends the label data below the blank rows. The report doesn't care that the rows are empty; the positions are still filled in the label report. Each blank row represents a blank label, pushing the actual data down to the first label. This technique doesn't accommodate missing labels between the first and last label. Example: tblOne, frmOne, and rptOne Solution 1: SELECT, DELETE, and INSERT INTO Ta create the temporary table: 1. In the Database window, select the table that contains the data you're printing. 2. Press Ctr1 +C to copy the table to the clipboard. 3. Press Ctrl+V topaste a copy ofthe table. In the Paste Table As dialag box, enter a name for the dummy table. (We'll be working with tblOne.) Select the Structure Only option button in the Paste Options section, and dick onOK.
