texte = I think I worded this funny. Here's a dummy approach:db=catalog.txt SKU 1 3 5How would I search and display that a SKU of 2 and 4 are available in the above example?Thanks, GK | Sounds simple, I'm brainfried though: | | I have a database with thousands of SKU's. Generally, the SKU skips by 5's, | but not always. There's big gaps in the numbering. The auto-numbering | issue has been resolved, however, I want to be able to find and use SKU's | that fall in the range of all used SKU's that aren't being used. | | Example: | Lowest SKU: 1 | Highest SKU: 533789456 | | There's SKU's in between low and high that have been used. How would I list | the ones that have not? It's easy to find the total number of unused: | | [search db=catalog.txt&eqskudatarq=[blank]] | This many free SKU's: [numfound] |
| [/search] | | I've tried a loop that would count from 1 to max and then if the index of | the loop matched the index of the above search, display the index, but it | hangs the server. | | Any ideas? | | GK | | | ------------------------------------------------------------- | This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to | the mailing list . | To unsubscribe, E-mail to: | To switch to the DIGEST mode, E-mail to | Web Archive of this list is at: http://search.smithmicro.com/ ------------------------------------------------------------- This message is sent to you because you are subscribed to the mailing list .
