I think the best thing is just getting a good book for this or reading
up on some websites about normalisation.

If you have any further questions about your database design you can
always try here.

I actually have a good amount of experience and have read several books on
data modeling. I am having a dumb moment. I am trying to create tables to
replace a flat file that is used for a call list. When a person goes on
call their call list file is set as active. They define Periods which are
associated to day of the week and start/end times. For example my file
might depict the following scenario:

Monday-Thursday from 8am to 3:59pm for problems of type 0 use this list of
numbers
Monday-Thursday from 4pm to 7:59am for problems of type 0 use this list of
numbers

Monday-Thursday from 8am to 3:59pm for problems of type 1 use this list of
numbers
Monday-Thursday from 4pm to 7:59am for problems of type 1 use this list of
numbers

Friday from 8am to 3:59pm for problems of type 0 use this list of numbers
Friday from 4pm to 7:59am for problems of type 0 use this list of numbers

Friday from 8am to 3:59pm for problems of type 1 use this list of numbers
Friday from 4pm to 7:59am for problems of type 1 use this list of numbers

Saturday-Sunday from 8am to 3:59pm for problems of type 0 use this list of
numbers
Saturday-Sunday from 4pm to 7:59am for problems of type 0 use this list of
numbers

Saturday-Sunday from 8am to 3:59pm for problems of type 1 use this list of
numbers
Saturday-Sunday from 4pm to 7:59am for problems of type 1 use this list of
numbers


Another person may define serveral other different time break downs. This
is going to be used for a Telphony application I am writing. I hate the
current systems`s flat file; it is cumbersome to maintain and people make
mistakes all the time with it. I want to either do a relational database
(SQL Server) or an XML schema. I just can`t picture this one... basically
the reference tables to accomplish what I want. I want to keep this in 3rd
normal form but not Boyce/Codd. I think every determinant is a candidate
key is over kill for this.

One table:
CallPersonID CallPersonName CallPersonInfo
IsActive(more or less)

next table:
CallPeriodID BeginDayOfWeek EndDayOfWeek BeginTime
EndTime (you might want to use bytes 0-6 for DayOfweek
so that you can calculate stuff or sort)

and assuming it is a many slots to many CallPersonID
next table:
CallListID CallPersonID CallPeriodID

no?

While objDataReader.Read()


I have code that ckecks if the record count is > than 6 and if so I want the
datareader to not read more records and move the pointer to the end so that
when it hits the end while statement it will think it has read all the
possible records and be done. Is there a command to do this?

You could try (in both senses!)

int readRecordsCount = 0;
while(reader.Read())
{
// do some stuff...
if(readRecordsCount++ > 6)
break;
}
reader.Close();

What I did is make a variable in the while loop and at the I had added a AND
to it....... works great.

While objDataReader.Read() And intTotalMatches < 8


so when it is 8 it breaks out.................. :)

If you really only want n records .net can fill a DataTable with n records.

Probably a better choice than asking .net for all records and then stopping.

There is also a Top command that should be used. Select TOP 8 * from
blah or somesuch.
