Hello All, I have approximately 600 million records that need to be sorted and then extracted to a flat file. I am unable to code a solution using visual Basic .NET. It was suggested to me that a DB engine could perform my task for me.
Is there a way to accomplish this using the multi-level sort example below? There are 18 table entries. I need to extract all 18 entries to create individual records but in a certain order. I also need to deduplicate the records based upon the sorted output file. I can take care of the deduplication (I think). I just need to get the records in the right order first. I need to sort them as follows... Sort Field 1 Ascending Sort Field 2 Ascending WITHIN field 1 Sort Field 3 Ascending WITHIN field 2 WITHIN field 1 Sort Field 4 Descending WITHIN field 3 WITHIN field 2 WITHIN field 1 <== This is a Date field and the most current (Highest) Date to float up Sort Field 5 Ascending WITHIN field 4 WITHIN field 3 WITHIN field 2 WITHIN field 1 Thank you in advance! -Ron _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@mailinglists.sqlite.org http://mailinglists.sqlite.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
