Hi !
I have record with these items:
Group_ID
Item_ID
Item_name
date_start
Status (To do , Done)
Group_ID      Item_ID          Item_name     	        date_start
100                 101	                   xxx                    the date
100	                102		                  xxx	                   the date + 1
100	                103		                  xxx	                   the date + 3
200                   201	                   yyy                    the date
200	                  202		                  yyy	                   the date + 4
200	                  203		                  yyy	                   the date + 6
300	                301		                   zzz	                  the date 
Can a portal, based on a self join, display *only the first record of each group*, ie:
100                 101	                   xxx                    the date
200                 201	                   yyy                    the date
300	                301		                   zzz	                   the date
Those records appears in the portal if the status task is defined "to do".
If impossible,  another way or workaround ?
Thanks in advance
Best
Patrick

To do this you wouldn't make a self join in todos, you'd go to a table occurrence from your Groups Table - showing one row for each record (group) - and from there show records from a relationship from Groups to todos.
 One quick to this approach (one advantage?) is that it will show a row for each group even if there is no relevant todo for that group. This can be good in the "group 102" will always be on the second line, not sometimes on the first line if group 101 has not undone todos. Of course, if you don't already have a table for Groups, you'll need to make one. Hope that helps. John Sindelar SeedCode |
