One approach would be to define a new
table containing the fields User ID, Property ID and Priority Order (new field
defined to store priority order). Yes, you will have to store the preference for
each user. I am not sure if this is the best approach though. Experts, your
comments please ...

I have two tables as follows in SQL Server 7.0 (Note SQL
Server is not 2000)
One of the tables will have user
information like
Table Name :- User Information
UserId
Name
Region
******
****
******
Ind1
Babu
12
Ind2
Raj
3
Ind3
Dinesh
2
Ind4
Kumar
1
Table Name :- Property table
PropertyID
PropertyName
********** ************
1
Color
2 Height
3
Width
4
Volume
-
-
-
-
-
-
600
Weight
Now when the user enters the site all the 600 properties
are displayed in a tabular form.
The problem is each user will have his own preference on
the order of display of these 600 properties.
User A may want
the 600th property to be displayed first and then the
others,
User B may want the 4th property to be displayed
first and then the others.
In this kind of a scenario how
should I store the order preference of each user in another
table.Should I make use of a junction table or is there any
other approach.
Assume I have 1000 users ,for each user I should store the
preference.
Thanks
