| i have a table called Trustee with fields TrustNumber,ClientID and TrustName. here corresponding to a TrustNumber there could be more than one records. My requirement is to transfer all the rows corresponding to each distinct TrustNumber in a single row in a new table with fields say TrustNumber,ClientID1,TrustName2,ClientID2,TrustName2, ClientID3,TrustName3, and so on, maximum to 7. i had solved the problem using two cursors, but that is very time consuming( it took almost an hour to processed 58k records).Can anyone suggest a better option for this.thanks,vineet |
