Doug writes "Hello This is an off the wall question but maybe you can shed some light on this, I have a project I'm working on, it is a personality matching web. I use asp to write 37 results to a sql database, these results consist of true or false answers, is there any way you can think of to write a query that would sort the closest matches by relevance ie: 37 matched of 1 personality sorted down to only 1 matched of personality. any help or advice to point me in the right direction would be greatly appreciated. thankyou"

It depends on your table structure. Hopefully it is properly normalized. Do you have already table structure sorted out?
