    top 15 of one field for each department

    top 15 of one field for each department

    I am embarrassed to ask - I just can't figure this dumb question out. I have a table. In that table I have Store, Department, UPC, Description, Retail $. This table has like 15K records in it. I am trying to write a query that will return the top 5 (sorted descending on Retail $) for each...

    distribute spreadsheet to several users to write to MySQL

    Thanks Andy, I appreciate the pointers. I really haven't refined the code at all yet. As a matter of fact, that code is from a tutorial I was following to see if writing to MySQL was even feasable. I see it is, but the connection is where the hiccup is. If I can figure out a way to proceed...

    Excel 2007 - insert text from another cell into path?

    This is most excellent Skip. Thanks. Any way to make it so you don't have to have the linked workbook open - or maybe to make it so that when you do have it open and it links the values and you save and then re-open the values don't appear as #ref! errors (beacuse we no longer have source...
