Hi - I've read the threads about converting rows of data into columns,
but those threads assume the number of distinct rows is very limited
(say 7 for days of week).

Instead, I have a table like this:

id    date   date type
1     ...      a
1     ...      b
....
2      ....     a
2      ....      d

Where the number of distinct id values is in the 100,000 range
but the distinct date types are limited to about 20.

I want to get a table (not a view) like this:

id    date a       date b      date d   ......
1      x               y             null
2      z              null           w
    (based on the values in the first table above)

So...I can't think how to do this.  Help would be appreciated.

TIA.
