Title: Stitch Queries
Post by: RobsWalker68 on 15 Mar 2012 07:04:28 AM
Hey All,

I came across a new proven practice document on stitch queries recently and worth a read if you haven't come across it yet.  It goes into a bit more detail on some of the mechanics, scenarios where the obvious result is not being returned and work arounds for report studio/query studio

Cheers

Rob

I just finished reading the proven practice document and I must say it was significantly better than "How the Scots Invented the Modern World: The True Story of How Western Europe's Poorest Nation Created Our World & Everything in It"

I would have been more interesting if it had!

I like history and read a lot of books that wouldn't be classified as "gripping" but I just couldn't get through this one!

Hope the spring thaw is on the way up there in the frozen north  :D
