Hi!
I have an Access table that holds the hierarchy of headings (for a
topical index) for a large law and policy journal, and I'm very,
very confused about how to use it. The columns it has are
parentheadingID, childHeadingID fields, and haschildren (which
somehow relates to the number of levels). When the ParentID and
Child ID are equal that's a top heading. Then you bounce down the
rows to the final heading for that branch by matching the
childheading id of the first row to the parentheading id of
another row, then take that row's childheadingid to find the next
parentheadingid...ad nauseum... until the last childheadingid
doesn't appear as another parentheadingid.
I'm sure this type of table or logic has a name and has been used
before. What is it called? Are there some examples I can see to
better understand how to use this in my CF code?
Thanks!
Jen
