Hey Abz... my head hurts just reading about what your trying to do, no wonder your head hurts!!

 

[abz]

the user inputs a date range jim, and the loop iterates for each date in that range and outputs categories and a date. that works fine and is used in other parts of the system. however now, for each of those days i need to check whether a date in a second date range is within the first, and output the details for each date in both... i can't explain it very well, ha. the loop first checks an array, then runs a date loop for that array, then there's a while loop, and a do while. and then they all resolve back again and iterate again for the original loop. it's a bit of a nightmare!! you may remember when i was writing the original one... ha. now they want more of my blood because it works too sodding well!! ha.

it's always like that in coding abz, the more you do for them, the more they want.

 

[abz]

indeed jim... i'm sure my super could lean over and do it in seconds.. but i don't want him to. he always makes me do things which turn out to do exactly what i was doing anyway, just differently... ha. irritating!! he's great for help when i need it though...

i just need to work out what variable to use in my query...

 

[Jim]

LOL, I have competitions here to see who can do the job with the least lines of code abz. I always win. , but it's good learning experience for them.

 

[abz]

sometimes i wish you were my boss jim. you sound ace

 

[Jim]

Thanks love, but to me it's just doing my job. I am quite strict though,

 

[abz]

ha. i'll bet no more miniminsing for me

 

[Jim]

LOL, yes love.

 

[abz]

i don't know jim... such double standards

 

[Jim]

RHIP abz, They do have full access to tech sites and boards though.

 

[abz]

i suppose so jim. it's what you get for working your way up that ladder

 

[Jim]

I think once you get over the initial excitement you start to forget and then when you want to rep someone you can't because you've got to spread it around. lol!
