Hi! I am wondering if there is a way using SQL to make a pattern file (I'm not sure exactly what to call it) of the sort following, which keeps track of people in programs of different kinds, by months of the year. A given file can be set up as below examining only 1 type of program (that is what I'm doing for now) or multiple types (by using a "1" for one type of program, a "2" for another type, etc.).
perid m1 m2 m3 m4 m5 m6 m7 m8 . . . m12 023 1 0 0 1 1 1 0 0 0 045 0 1 0 0 1 0 0 1 1 It is just a list of id numbers and then for each month (m1, m2...m12) a 1 is placed if the individual is in the program and a 0 if they are not. The "pattern file" is used to help in the analysis of how people are using programs and cycling in and out of them. Thanks very much. -Alex -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
