I am making a game information site using ASP.Net and SQL and need a bit of help deciding the best way to design the table that will hold the release dates. I was thinking a two column design (ExactDate, RoughDate) with each column being nullable but it just did not seem right. The table will need to be able to hold the following date formats and I would like to order by the closest date to the current date (so the games coming out sooner are listed first):
DD-MM-YYYY
(Q1/Q2/Q3/Q4)-YYYY
(Early/Mid/Late)-YYYY
(Spring/Summer/Fall/Winter)-YYYY
TBA
Any ideas on how best to deal with the different dates?
Thanks
