Subject Revursive Stored Procedure
Author James N Hitz
Supposing I had a list of Departments in a table like this:

ID | DEPARTMENT | PARENTID
1 | INFO. TECH. | NULL
2 | ACCOUNTS | NULL
3 | SOFTWARE DEVLPT | 1
4 | REQUISITIONS | 2
14 | QUALITY ASSURANCE | 3

What would be the best way to produce output showing the entire path for
every "sub-department" (WHERE PARENTID NOT IS NULL ORDER BY 2) to get
something like this:

ID | DEPT_PATH
4 | ACCOUNTS - REQUISITIONS
3 | INFO. TECH. - SOFTWARE DEVLPT
14 | INFO. TECH. - SOFTWARE DEVLPT - QUALITY ASSURANCE

I think a recursive Stored Proc. Any suggestions?

Thanks
James
