SQl rows to columns conversion
- by Thihara
Hi,
I have a table ClassAttendance and I'm using MSSQL 2005
studentID--attendanceDate---------------------------------------status
1004--------2010-03-17--------------------------------------------------0
1005--------2010-03-17--------------------------------------------------1
1006--------2010-03-17--------------------------------------------------0
1007--------2010-03-17--------------------------------------------------0
1004--------2010-03-19--------------------------------------------------0
1005--------2010-03-19--------------------------------------------------1
1006--------2010-03-19--------------------------------------------------0
1007--------2010-03-19--------------------------------------------------0
1004--------2010-03-20--------------------------------------------------1
as you can see studentID is a foreign Key for a table called StudentData and attendedDate has an unknown number of rows.
Can i get the output like below by using a query? I need the dates in one month to be columns and the value of the date columns will be values in the status column. The number of date records per studentID is the same its the number of dates in the attendanceDate filed that is unknown.
studentID---------2010-03-17--------2010-03-19------2010-03-20
1004-----------------------------0----------------------0--------------------1
etc.
This is for a creating a report so I need to do it in a query. Please help if you can.
