The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.
If you know of an easy to use, open source, search engine ... please contact support@midrange.com.
Could track Insert/Update date timestamps and query based on that.
Would probably have to track last time processed though, so probably not entirely bulletproof unless you also store a pointer somewhere that tells you a particular record was processed.
Maybe assigning a GUID would help and then writing that to the processed table.
Just some random thoughts at lunch time :-)

Hello guys
Need some help with uniquely identifying records in data files that are
routinely extracted
to an external (SQL Server) data warehouse.
Only new or updated records are extracted and I need a way to tell which
record is new
(and add it to the DW) and which is existing updated record (in which case
update the existing record in the DW)
The transaction files are about 80 - 100 million records (all in all)
Since I could find a field combination that uniquely identify each records
I tries RRN but apparently some records gets deleted and it is no good.
Any help will be greatly appreciated
