| I would like to know how to create calculated rows in SQL server. I am developing a report writer in vb and I have implemented the report writer using cursors and stored procedures. This method is slow and resource-hungry because the cursors loop through a temporary table, updating rows based on whether they have formulas or they just require data to be picked up from a transaction table. The problem is not the calculations, it's writing to the temp table that takes too long.Is there a faster way of creating calculated rows?Gilbert MusengiSolution DeveloperZimbabwe |

| Sounds like you're talking about creating a VIEW. Take a look in BOL to see what can be done with views. |
