Reindexing a db with duplicate numbers...
This WebDNA talk-list message is from 1999
It keeps the original formatting.
numero = 25505
interpreted = N
texte = Here's the situation:I [append] all my orders to an orders.db. Each order is supposed to have a unique ordernumber, which is appended to orders.db as field ordernum.Due to a bug in one of my templates, some of these orders now have duplicate ordernumbers. I thought I'd correct this with something like the following code in a template: [search db=orders.db&neordernumdata=[blank]&asmoddatesort=1&asmodtimesort=2] [founditems] [replace db=orders.db&eqordernumdata=[ordernum]]ordernum=[index][/replace] [/founditems] [/search] Of course, that doesn't work. Anyone have a suggestion as to what search criteria I can put in the [replace] to make this work? All I want to do is sequentially renumber all the records in this db...
