I am making a game information site using ASP.Net and SQL and need a bit of help deciding the best way to design the table that will hold the release dates. I was thinking a two column design (ExactDate, RoughDate) with each column being nullable but it just did not seem right. The table will need to be able to hold the following date formats and I would like to order by the closest date to the current date (so the games coming out sooner are listed first):DD-MM-YYYY(Q1/Q2/Q3/Q4)-YYYY(Early/Mid/Late)-YYYY(Spring/Summer/Fall/Winter)-YYYYTBAAny ideas on how best to deal with the different dates?Thanks-- If I get used to envying others...Those things about my self I pride will slowly fade away.-Stellvia |
