I have points for 2 separate curves that I need to map onto each other based on five points along each curve. Does anybody have any suggestion/code to demonstrate what would be the best way to do this using SQL?

Each curve is in a separate table.

Thx

Can you explain this in more detail? What do you mean by "map"? Sample data would be good.

Please see the pinned FAQ on top of this forum on how to post more information. Esp:

Apologies. I have the following key points along two curves.


X
ID1
ID2

1000
1,786,929
1,249,121

200
852,628
636,772

100
569,317
440,798

10
39,155
33,566

5
9,295
3,902


I need to use sql to try and find a formula that will map the points from ID1 onto ID2. This formula will then be used applied to all the points for the curve ID1 to create a curve for points where X=0 to 1000 to create a mapping of one curve to another.

Appreciate the help.

Thanks for the added info. I am not sure how sql can help you "find" a formula to relate one set of data to the other. It seems that it is your data and you should know how they are correlated, if you don't, then someone else should. Otherwise there could be a millon possibilities how these two sets are related. If you know how they are related, the SQL has math functions that can assist you to map the points, but you will have to come up with the formula yourself first: [url]http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms177516.aspx[/url]
