Hi, Pete,

Have you seen The Create Cross Tab SQL (CRTCTSQL) utility presented here : http://www.itjungle.com/mpo/mpo032703-story01.html

Objet : SQL Column ranges into rows

Wresting with some database conversion issues. Actually, I don't want to the database to change, I want my application that accesses these different databases to change as little as possible so building views to present the data in a similar fashion is what I am after.

I have a table that could either be in this format:

code, date
with data that looks like this:

'test', 20080115
'test', 20080116
'test', 20080117
'test', 20080118

OR I could have a table that looked like this:

code, begin date, end date
'test', 20080115, 20080118

What I would like do is have a view that structures the second table like the first. If the two dates are the same, you get one row with code and date. If you have a range of dates that span 6 days (for example), then there would be 6 rows generated by the view.

Is this possible?

Thanks

Pete
