Query which shows results?

[Hanss]

Hi,

I am wondering if there is anyway to do this with an access query:

I have table1 with two fields and data:

Temp: Count:
15 2
20 3

I would like a query that generates the following results:

Results:
15
15
20
20
20

I would appreciate any direction!

Code not tested...

Dim sSQL As String
Dim i As Integer

With rst
    .Open "Select * From table1"
    Do While Not .EOF
        For i = 1 To !Count.Value
            If Len(sSQL) = 0 Then
                sSQL = "Select " & !Temp.Value & " As Results From table1 " & vbNewLine
            Else
                sSQL = sSQL & " UNION ALL " & vbNewLine
                sSQL = sSQL & "Select " & !Temp.Value & " From table1 " & vbNewLine
            End IF
        Next i
        .MoveNext
    Loop
    .Close
End With

Debug.Print sSQL

The SQL you should be getting:[tt]

Select 15 As Results From table1
UNION ALL
Select 15 From table1
UNION ALL
Select 20 From table1
UNION ALL
Select 20 From table1
UNION ALL
Select 20 From table1

I typically have a table of numbers to assist with tasks like this:

tblNums
Num
1
2
3
4
...

Use this table of numbers with your table in a query like:

SELECT Temp
FROM table1, tblNums
WHERE Count>=[Num]
ORDER BY Temp;
