yeah that might be a good idea.
but,
You could always use String.Format("T:{0}-{1:3}",Date.Now.Year.ToString
().Substring(2,2)
, SomeSQLRowcountFunction(student_details) )
this i what i wanted maybe i can work with something like this.
thanks guys :) sry if you couldn't understand what i wanted anyway i got a
clue how to do it thanks :)
