Ordering text

[Terence Heaford]

This actually works but is very slow (> 800ms)

put merge("SELECT *,SUM (amount) OVER (ORDER BY recID) AS balance FROM myAccountName") into tSQL

I have settled on my earlier suggestion


Earlier suggestion results in 20ms performance.

---------------------------------
I believe it’s sorted (forgive the pun)

As the data is stored in an SQLite db I have used the db to sum the values then worked from the top. Like below.

This results in approx. 20ms for each sort direction.

I have looked into a running total calc using SQLite but the solutions I found seemed rather complicated.

Sometimes asking for help then presents a solution.
