                                          | [code]SELECT ISBN,       [Debit] = CASE WHEN QTY > 0 THEN QTY ELSE 0 END,       [Credit] = CASE WHEN QTY < 0 THEN QTY ELSE 0 ENDFROM Mytable[/code]In similar fashion you coudl make a VIEW onto the table with these extra "calcuated" columns;  or you could add a couple of Computed Columns to the table (but in my experience Computed Columns in a table have been Bad News, and I would strongly caution against them)Kristen |
