Using mySQL 4.0, I would like to know how I can code a query that will change
the value of Participants.Active from Y to N is for three or more CONSECUTIVE
sessions they have Attendance.Present = 'No'?
The Attendance Table has Attendance.Session which coresponds to
Sessions.SessionID and Attendance.Participant coresponds to
Participants.Part_ID;
To assist, I have shown you the data of the Sessions and the descriptions of
Attendance, Participants, Attendance
Thanks
