| I'm not exactly sure if this is called "Meta Data", but I think it is. Here is what I'm trying to do. I have 2 tables, Area, and AreaRight.Area is simple, looks like this:AreaID AreaName------ --------1 Admin2 Accounting3 AnotherAreaAreaRight is simple as well:RightID AreaID RightName------- ------ ---------1 1 Read2 1 Write3 1 ModifyI was wondering how to return a recordset that looks like this:AreaID RightRead RightWrite RightModify------ --------- ---------- -----------1 1 2 3Basically it'll return a subset as actual columns in another recordset. I know how to make it like that if I know exactly how many columns are coming back, but there could be any amount of rights per area. Eventually, this will hook up to a userrights table where the rights columns will return 0 and 1, depending on if they have rights or not.Thanks for your help. |
