Question : Update Records based on previous updated record
it is possible to update a set of records sequentially, so that the value of record N+1 is based on the value of record N?
Let's say I have 100 records in table Test with columns: TestID and MyNumber
I would like to update all 100 records so that MyNumber is 1.05% greater than the value of the previous records' MyNumber value; so the results would be...
1 100
2 105
3 110.25 (thats 5% more than record 2's 105)
4 115.76 (that's 5% more than record 3's 110.25)
etc...
Can I do this without creating a cursor or loop? In one statement?
Answer : Update Records based on previous updated record
Hmmm...I always create separate log file backups. Why don't you like this? The reason is that it lets me put a time stamp on them, and in the event I need to restore them, its easy to determine the order I need to restore them in.
