AUD CHF DKK EUR
AUD 1.3691 1 1.10634 0.18393 1.3691

i want to calculate
aud / aud (=1.3691000000/1.3691000000) = 1
aud / chf (=1.3691000000/ 1.2375000000) = 1.106343434
aud / dkk (=1.3691000000/ 7.4432) = 0.183939703
aud / eur (=1.3691000000/ 1) = 1.3691

AUD CHF DKK EUR
CHF 1.2375 0.90387 1 0.16625 1.2375
likewise
chf / chf (= 1.2375000000 / 1.2375000000 )= 1
chf / aud (= 1.2375000000 / 1.3691000000 )= 0.90387
chf / dkk (= 1.2375000000 /7.4432 ) = 0.16625
chf / dkk (= 1.2375000000 /1 ) = 1.2375

AUD CHF DKK EUR
DKK 7.4432 5.43656 6.01470 1 7.4432
so..on

AUD CHF DKK EUR
EUR 1 0.73040 0.80808 0.13435 1

My query is
SELECT
DISTINCT
Curncy_Info_Cur.Currency AS Curncy,
Curncy_Info_Rate.Spot_Rate AS Spot_Rate
FROM
Curncy_Info AS Curncy_Info_Cur
LEFT OUTER JOIN Curncy_Info AS Curncy_Info_Rate ON Curncy_Info_Cur.Currency=Curncy_Info_Rate.Currency
AND Curncy_Info_Rate.Period=(SELECT Net_Status.Netting_Period FROM Net_Status WHERE Net_Status.Netting_Status=’1′ AND Net_Status.Phase=’netting’ )
ORDER BY Curncy_Info_Cur.Currency

gives output below

AUD 1.3691
CHF 1.2375
DKK 7.4432
EUR 1
GBP 0.867
JPY 103.896
MXN 18.0583
NZD 1.74431
PLN 4.328
THB 41.91

Good day Sir

I’ve just started familiarising myself with SQL and programming in general again. I’ve installed SQL Server 2005 Express successfully and downloaded the AdventureWorks sample database. I’m sure you aware that the database cannot be attached using the Control Panel/Program Features in Windows 7 as there is no option to add to the current SQL 2005 Express installation. How else can I add the DB, is there a script I can run perhaps?

Thanks!

Hi dave:
I am new to SQL Server. I have successfully installed .Net Framework 3.5.1, SQL Server 2008 developer version (on Windows Vista Home edition) and AdventureWork sample database per your suggestions on your web site. But I just can’t see the diagrams. When I click at the DB on the left side, windows on the right side is Blank instead of showing the diagrams of each table.
What did I do wrong? or do I need more new SW missing?…. If so, please give me links for download. Any help it will be greatly appreciate!!!
Thanks!!!
Hung
