sql question 5

Asked by rutledgj in PL / SQL, SQL Server 2005

Consider the following flattened hiearchy table for employees

ParentID      ParentName         ChildLevel         ChildID     ChildName
01                Ann                         1                       01           Ann  
01                Ann                         2                       02           Brenda
01                Ann                         3                       03           Carl
01               Ann                          2                       04           Dave
01               Ann                          3                        05           Ebert
02               Brenda                     4                        03           Carl
04               Dave                        4                        05           Ebert


The ChildLevel indicates the tree level (Hiearchy).  So Ann is the top level manager. Brenda and Dave work for Ann. Carl works for Brenda, Ebert works for Dave.

I want sql that will return all of these people grouped properly so in a report it will look like this:

Ann          
           Brenda
                  Carl
           Dave
                  Ebert


Basically a drill-down report. So I need a NodeLevel and the name so I know how to group them. The root id for Ann is passed in.

I need a solution for both oracle and sql server.Start Free Trial
