Hi allI'm bored  , and wondering if any of you had any wonderful thoughts on the best way to store a map-grid - ie 2 dimensional array. The requirements are simple, the contents of each grid location is just to be say, an nvarchar(50)....I've thought about one table with columnsid, x, y, valuewhere x and y represent the coords of the grid location, value being the nvarchar. I'm not entirely sure about the repercussions ... so I'd appreciate any brilliant suggestions!Actually, any suggestions will be appreciated.... -(snooze-time)zzzzzzzzzzzzzz--I hope that when I die someone will say of me "That guy sure owed me a lot of money" |
