The Solution Rating System

With so many solutions, how can you tell which solutions are most likely to help you and which ones are not? To provide you with a tool to use, we rate our solutions based on various elements that most accurately determine if a solution is a quality solution. To explain what factors affect the solution rating, here are the elements we take into consideration when formulating our solution rating.

The Grade of the Solution
The Zone Rank of the Expert Providing the Solution
The Number of Author and Expert Comments
The Number of Experts Contributing
The Feedback of the Community

Your Input Matters
Because of the way the system is set up, the most important variable in this equation is you. As a member of Experts Exchange, you are able to cast your vote on the quality of the solutions in regard to how complete, accurate, helpful and easy to understand each solution is. When you provide your feedback, each rating is adjusted accordingly. So, if you see a solution that has a poor rating that you think is a good solution, let us know by rating it. As you do, the rating will be adjusted and will become more accurate for other members of our site.

If you have any suggestions that you would like to make for our rating system, please ask a question in the Suggestions Zone of Community Support.

Thank you!

Specific Reports from a normalized database

Asked by allenlo77 in Microsoft Access Database, Microsoft ADP, Access Reports

I have a normalized database that needs to be displayed in reports. I understand how to do this but the problem is I need to follow a format (certain order). If the data does not exist for a certain item in the form, it will ultimately not display on the report, but I want it to display as zero: BEHAVIOR a - 0
BEHAVIOR b - 1

From the experts, how do you deal with a situation like this? I am fairly new to normalized databases and wonder what is the convention for dealing with reports like this? I would figure running a query that right outer joins a list of the actual data items so it displays 0 or blank for the ones that don't exist. Or should I export this to excel and deal with that? Thank you experts.
