Join Tables
Here is the breakdown of my logic on joining the tables (Please critique):
1) PC's can have many software titles and software titles can belong to many PC's but the PC can have only one copy of a particular software title.
2) Software titles can have many licenses but a license can belong to only one Software title.
3) A license to a particular software title can belong to only one PC.
The table layout I created, only relevant parts (Again, please critique):
1) tblPC has an autoincrement primary key, tblPcID.
2) tblSoftware has an autoincrement primary key, tblSoftwareID.
3) tblLicense has an autoincrement primary key, tblLicenseID. It also has a foriegn key, tblSoftwareID to tblSoftware.tblSoftwareID.
4) tbljnPcSoftware has a unique index that includes tblPcID and tblSoftwareID. tblSoftwareID is also separetly indexed. tblPcID is a FK to tblPcID.tblPcID and tblSoftwareID is a FK to tblSoftware.tblSoftwareID. I also have tblLicenseID as an index in this table.

Connecting Three Tables With Left Join And Ordinary Join
I have 3 Mysql tables: Week (with columns day and hour) Activity (with columns day, hour, activityid and ac_text) Person (with columns name and activityid) I would like to create a scheme showing the activities during a week sorted on days and hours. If I ignore the person table I can fix it with the statement: Select …. From week left join activity on (week.day = activity.day) and (week.hour = activity.hour) order by day, hour I can then make a loop (I am usin asp.net) that writes the activities. My problem is when I try to combine the persons to the activtities in an given hour. How do I do that ? (activity.activityid = person.activityid). I have a little extra question. When I make the join above and print the result (day, time and activity) there isn’t any output if no activity matches a given day and hour. How do I do when I always want to print day and hour and add activity where such exist.
Cannot Alias Locked Tables / Join To Unlocked Tables ?
If you manually issue a table lock then query that table, aliasing the table generates an error. If you try to join the table to another table that is not locked, you will receive an error. What is the reason for this?
How To Get The SUM Value From Two Tables? Join Tables? Subquery?
Hi, I have two tables: table A Id. | id_result | value 1 | 1| 10 2 | 1| 11 3 | 2| 7 4 | 2| 13 table B Id. | id_result | value 1 | 1| 4 2 | 1| 1 3 | 2| 5 4 | 2| 6 How can I get sum of unique keys from table A and B (id_result) like this?: id_result | sum_table_A | sum_table_B 1 | 21| 5 2 | 20| 11 I can do it with UNION or 2 separate SQL statement, but how to make it in 1 query or using subquery?
How To Join Tables?
I would like to select info from just two tables. I've tried two seperate select calls but it gives me some of the same info from each table twice. Can someone please post a "join for dummies" example on how I would do this. I've tried using "Union" but I'm still just a newbie and was even more confused.
Join Tables
How would I join these 2 tables? $query = "SELECT DATE_FORMAT(g.gdate, '%m/%d/%Y') as date, DATE_FORMAT(g.gdate, '%W') AS day, g.gainloss, g.tradingday, sum(t.amount) as amount FROM gain g left join transactions t on t.tdate = g.gdate WHERE CID='$loginuser'"; the problem is i need to display all records in the gain table, but only display data for the transactions table where cid=loginuser.
Join Of Two Tables
I have two tables that I am trying to join together to create a particular view, but I am have a difficult time coming up with the correct query. One table looks like... Uid | Login 1 | John 2 | Paul 3 | Sally The second table looks like Uid | Fid | Value 1 | 1 | john@sw.com 1 | 2 | San Francisco 1 | 3 | 2007 2 | 1 | Paul@sw.com 2 | 2 | Atlanta 2 | 3 | 1997 3 | 1 | sally@sw.com 3 | 2 | New York 3 | 3 | 2006 I need the resulting data to look like.....
Join 2 Tables
table1 = a1, a2 and a3 table2 = b1, b2 and b3 when join table1 and table2 table1 + table2 = a1, a2, a3, b1, b2 and b3 question: Instead of having 6 collums after join, can I have 3??? (table1 + table2 = c1, c2 and c3)
Join Three Tables
I have a problem about joining three tables A, B, C: table A has the serial_number as its primary key, table B has the serial_number as its primary key but serial_number is not unique in this table (combined with category, group etc. other columns as primary key together ) table C has some common columns with table B Now I want to select the serial_number from table B with certain conditions from Table C, so I could use the following query: select distinct tB.serial_number from table_B as tB join table_C as tC Where Conditions; And then, I would like to add the serial_number in table_A but not in table B to the serial_number I just selected, so I would use something like: select distinct tB.serial_number from table_B as tB join table_C as tC Where Conditions UNION select serial_number from table_A not in table_B; is it right? I think it's the right way to do that. Another question, with the same task, can I do the query like this: select tA.serial_number from table_A as tA LEFT JOIN table_B as tB ON tA.serial_number = tB.serial_number JOIN tableC as tC WHERE Conditions.. That's what I understand about "LEFT JOIN", SQL will select serial_number from table_B and table_C with the conditions satisfied first and then join table_A with serial_number only in table_A but not in table_B. Am I right?

How To Join 2 Tables
Anyways Im a newbie using MYSql V5 I have 2 tables (called teams & results) In teams I have 2 columns teamsindex..........teamname (Primary Key) ........1......................arsenal ........2......................man u ........3......................liverpool ........4......................chelsea ........5......................tottenham ........6......................accrington stanley (who are they :) ) In results I have 3 columns (amongst many) which contain primary key & fixture info (intiger) e.g. Recordnum..........hometeam.......awayteam (primary key) .........1......................1.......................2 .........2......................3.......................4 .........3......................5.......................6 I want to output the fixtures so instead of it displaying 1vs2, 3vs4, 4vs5 I want it to display arsenal vs man u, liverpool vs chelsea, tottenham vs accrington stanley etc I know there is a really really simple answer to this but Im really really thick, I expect its based on the JOIN syntax but can someone show me the code that would produce the results I require in order for me to get my head around it, me is very odd, I can work things out going backwards.
Join Three Tables With SUM
I have three tables, a purchase order table, an items ordered table, and an invoice table. I want to select records from the purchase orders based on various criteria (eg vendor, or date, etc) and then get the SUM of the items ordered from the second table, and the SUM of the invoices (if any exist yet) from the third table. Is this possible with a single select statement? Here is one of my trial queries that seems to be close to what I am looking for. Depending on how I apply (phrase) the 'group by' clause and the table being grouped, it sometimes produces corect results for one of the sums or the other: SELECT po.ponum, po.poDate, po.vendor, po.status, SUM(item.qty*item.cost) AS itemtotal, SUM(invoice.cost) AS invoicetotal FROM po LEFT JOIN item ON po.ponum=item.ponum LEFT JOIN invoice ON po.ponum=poinvoice.ponum WHERE po.status='open' AND ((po.pon BETWEEN $poNumLo AND $poNumHi) OR (po.poDate BETWEEN '$poDateLo' AND '$poDateHi')) GROUP BY item.pon The actual application and tables are a bit more complex, but I simplified it here for clarity.
Join Tables
i am trying to work out the most efficient way to list say multipl= e categories of entries, the database is quite large about 200 meg.=20 I would like to know if using join tables is more efficient than storing th= e keys in a varchar field then within the second loop doing a where in (1,2= ,3,4) where the 1,2,3,4 are the stored category keys in the varchar field = rather than a where in (1), where 1 is the pirmaryID of the entry for insta= nce ?
2 Tables Join
I am terrible at writing SQL Statements. I never can remember which JOIN to use and what the syntax is... I'm trying to get all items from table MARKET and only items with matching IDs and have a primary of 1 in MKT_PHOTOS this is what I have, but I don't think it's right: CODESELECT *, DATE_FORMAT(market.added,'%b. %e, %Y') AS disp_date FROM market LEFT JOIN mkt_photos ON market.itemid = mkt_photos.itemid AND mkt_photos.primary = '1' WHERE market.sold <> '1' AND market.visible <> '0' AND DATE_FORMAT(market.added,'%U') >= (DATE_FORMAT(market.added,'%U')-2) ORDER BY market.added DESC
Join Tables
I have a main table which, among other columns, has a customerID and a customer_type. customer_type accepts values "normal" or "courier". I also have 2 more tables (customer and courier). What I want is to join the main table with the other two, depending on the value of customer_type ie Code: SELECT customerID FROM main m INNER JOIN (CASE customer_type WHEN 'normal' THEN customers ELSE courier) p ON m.customerID=p.id
Join Tables, Same Column Name
I need to join 2 tables and to obtain their id's. But both tables has same column name for id, = "id". So in a 'while' loop there is no difference between them (i.e. $row['id']). Should I change these names to be different or is there another way to do this?
Performing Join On Three Tables
I want to extract data from three different tables, and I was wondering if I could use joins then all I would require is the execution of just one query. I have read that it's possible to perform more than two joins, but I could not find an example on the net... Can anybody show me an example or possibly give me like to a website where it has been explained already?
Need Query To Join 2 Tables Through A 3rd
I have a table called client (primary key = clientID), another called clientFamily (pk = clientFamilyID) and a table that joins those two called client2clientFamily. The latter table only has two rows: clientID and clientFamilyID (no pk). On the client table, say the client has 3 children and 2 siblings. Those would go on the clientFamily table. The part I don't know how to do is how to assign those 3 kids and 2 sibs to that particular client. I know I do it via the client2clientFamily table but I don't know the query. I'm also not sure I'm thinking of this right. The fields on clientFamily start off like: clientFamilyID spouseFirstName spouseMiddleName spouseLastName spouseOccupation motherFirstName motherLastName motherOccupation fatherFirstName fatherLastName fatherOccupation I think that part's ok, but if I add: childFirstName childLastName childBirthday childSex and sibFirstName sibLastName sibOccupation how are, for example, a child's birthday and sex are going to be linked to the correct child? And a sib's occupation linked to the correct sib? Now I'm wondering if I need a separate table for clientChildren (and a joining table client2clientChildren) and another one for clientSibs (& client2clientSibs) instead of putting everything in clientFamily. Ugh.

Does this make sense. I am sure its easy but i have looked at examples but im not getting it. the company_name for customer_id=1287 is Jacks Transport in atf.
What Join To Use With Multiple Tables?
I'm assuming I need some sort of join to accomplish this but I've yet to find something that I have been able to understand. I have 3 tables - Items, Photos and a table that links the two that I've elegantly named ItemsPhotos Items - ItemID - ItemName - ItemEtc Photos - PhotoID - PhotoFilename - PhotoEtc ItemsPhotos - ItemPhotoID - ItemID - PhotoID Each Item has a unique ID, as does each Photo. The ItemsPhotos keeps track of their relationship. I want to be able to select all of the items and only one of the the available photos listed for that item to be returned to an Array for use like the following; foreach(#){ $databaseOutput[#]['ItemName']; $databaseOutput[#]['PhotoFilename']; } If anoyone knows how I can accomplish this I would be very grateful for a solution. Sincere appologies if there is an obvious answer or if I have mis-posted - I've been trying to get this (among other things) to work for hours now and I'm desperate for a solution.

For Instance Product A would perform function a,b,c,d and e and would have technology X,Y and Z product B would perform function f,g and h and would have technology W, Y and Z. product C would perform function b,c and I and would have technology O,P,Q and X. How can I link the three tables? Meaning that product_detail ---> function_detail when the linkage between the two of them resides in product_function_detail?

Join Help – 2 Tables, 3 Queries?
Hi all – just hoping someone can offer me some advice on a query that I just can’t get my head around. For reference I’m using MySQL 3.23. The tables I’m dealing with are; CREATE TABLE `category` ( `cat_id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, `cat_issub` int(11) NOT NULL default Ɔ', `cat_name` varchar(255) PRIMARY KEY (`cat_id`) ) CREATE TABLE `site` ( `site_id` int(11) NOT NULL auto_increment, `cat_id` int(11) NOT NULL default Ɔ', `city_id` int(3) NOT NULL default Ɔ', PRIMARY KEY (`site_id`) ) What I need to do is; •Find everything in `site` that has a particular city_id •Find all the DISTINCT categories, `site`.`cat_id`, that all the sites belong to. •(Here’s the bit I can’t do) If a the category id has a `cat_issub` != 0 then include it’s parent category in the results. The parent category’s cat_id (same table) is equal to `cat_issub` •Only display the `cat_id`’s in the results where `cat_issub` = ‘0’ The SQL I came up with is a join, however, I can’t get it to bring up the last two points of the query’s requirements. I’m not even sure if this is at all possible, or think of an alternative PHP or MySQL function, so any help or suggestion will be greatly appreciated! SELECT DISTINCT `cat1`.`cat_id`, `cat1`.`cat_issub`, `cat1`.`cat_name`, `cat1`.`cat_hassub` FROM `category`, `site` JOIN `category` AS `cat1` ON (`site`.`cat_id`) LEFT JOIN `category` AS `cat2` ON (`cat1`.`cat_issub`) WHERE `site`.`city_id` = '$city_id' AND (`site`.`cat_id` = `cat1`.`cat_id` OR `cat1`.`cat_id` = `cat2`.`cat_issub`) ORDER BY `cat_name` ASC

Join 5 Tables With Common Field Name
I know this is one of those simple questions, but I just can't seem to grasp how to make this work... I have 5 tables in a database with several fields that are the same. I need to search all 5 tables on one of those fields and display the results. so lets say in all 5 tables I have a field called color and want to return the results where any of those tables have the color RED: so the fields are: table1 color table2 color table3 color table4 color table5 color and I want all results from all tables where color = RED. I've looked at the Join tutorials and Union, and have tried many variations on statements, I just can't seem to get it to work.
Complicated Join Tables For Calendar
The overall objective is: Present the next 10 upcoming events from different tables. I am doing this in php so if you can't think of a query to do this a php method would work. My current idea is to join the tables together and then somehow sort by date and then pick where the date > yesterday. The problem is I can't figure out how to join them and get the data out. This isn't all the tables but is just a few, if someone can help with the query to do this I'm sure I can expand to cover more tables. I've posted the table, the field I need, and what the date is named. All the dates are formatted DATE (YYYY-MM-DD) Table: calendar Need: event_name Date: date Table: epft Need: epft_name Date: epft_date Table: llab Need: llab_name Date: llab_date Table: fltmtg Need: fltmtg_name Date: fltmtg_date

Slow Join On Large Tables
I have two tables: D (500,000 recs), and DL (2,500,000 recs) D has a PK and an index on HLQ. DL has a PK and an index on ID. The following SQL: SELECT HLQ as "HLQ", count(*) FROM D, DL WHERE D.DLID=DL.ID GROUP BY HLQ produces the following explain: tabletypepossible_keyskeykey_lenrefrowsExtra DALL500000Using where; Using temporary; Using filesort DLeq_refIDID4D.DLID1Using index The query takes ~ 3:30 on a Athlon xp2200; 1GB RAM; default bufer settings. Adding the following buffer settings only slightly decrerased the time (~3:00). key_buffer=512M table_cache=256 sort_buffer=16M read_buffer_size=16M It appeasrs that the 'Using filesort' on table D is due to the Group By clause and is the problem. I have an index on HLQ. Is there any way to get MySQL to use it?
LEFT JOIN With Multiple Tables
I've got a query that does a LEFT JOIN. Something like this: SELECT a.id, myB.someField, c.someColumn FROM c, a LEFT JOIN b AS myB ON (myB.id = a.id) However, if I reverse the two tables in the FROM clause, it doesn't work anymore. It seems like the table in the ON part has to be the last table mentioned in the FROM clause. Curiously enough, it DOES work on MySQL 4 (4.1.16-nt), but NOT on MySQL 5 (5.0.45-community-nt). This might not seem much of a problem, but sometimes I want to do more LEFT JOINs in one query, with different tables in the ON part. And I don't see how I can do that in MySQL 5.x, as all the tables would all have to be last in line in the FROM part.
Problem With Subquery And Join Between Two Tables
I have two tables, the first is the user table (the user is unique) and the second table of experience job (the user can have more than one experience job). I need to do a SQL query where it shows the data of the user (tabal of user) and single a experience job (the one last), my problem is that I have not been able to do the query, my query shows me all the experience job of the user, but I need the one last. I have the following query, but the problem is that it shows null the experience job column from the second user in ahead.....
Join Different Tables Based On Case?
I am trying to write a query where a user will enter the deal id, and based on the product type of that deal id, the query will return fields specific to that product. Each product has its own table. Can I do a case statement that joins different tables based on the product of the deal number?
DISTINCT With Multiple Tables And INNER JOIN ?
My query works OK this way, but I need every "kohde_name" only once (preferred the earliest "hav_date"). I've tried with "DISTINCT kohde_name" in many ways, but always end up with syntax error...:( Is there any solution with DISTINCT, or do I need anotjer solution? my (simplified) query: SELECT henk_name,henk_number, kohde_name ,kohde_txt,havainto_id,hav_kohdetxt, hav_date FROM ((henkilo INNER JOIN havaitsija ON hja_henkilo_id=henkilo_id) INNER JOIN havainto ON hja_havainto_id=havainto_id) INNER JOIN kohde ON hav_kohde_id=kohde_id WHERE ...
Non-trivial Join Of 3 Tables, With Restrictions
given: - a league consists of several teams; table leagues has a unique league_id and all its teams have 1 foreign key, league_id, referencing their containing league. - a team consists of many players and no player can be on more than one team in the same league; to allow for variable size teams, an entry in table lineups represents one player's presence on a team. so table lineups has 2 foreign keys, team_id and player_id. - table players contains a list of all available players. want: - to be able to select all players that are not on a team in a given league. note that league_id is in table teams, all available players (for any one league) are in table players, and the players on a particular team are in table lineups. So the relevent data is scattered across 3 tables. for example: - league sample_league has 3 teams: jets, browns and falcons. - the list of all available players is jon, bob, frank, pat. - jets has jon on its team, signified by an entry in lineups with team_id=jets and player_id=jon. similarly, browns has bob on its team, and falcons has frank on its team. - there could be other entries in lineups from other leagues, like an entry for team patriots from a league called some_other_league which has player pat on their team, and another entry for team bengals from a league called yet_another_league which has bob on it. - i want to be able (in mysql 4.0.18 so no nested queries) to be able to select all the players NOT on a team in league sample_league in one statement. (in this example it should return just one player, pat).
Slow Join On Large Tables
I have two tables: D (500,000 recs), and DL (2,500,000 recs) D has a PK and an index on HLQ. DL has a PK and an index on ID. The following SQL: SELECT HLQ as "HLQ", count(*) FROM D, DL WHERE D.DLID=DL.ID GROUP BY HLQ produces the following explain: tabletypepossible_keyskeykey_lenrefrowsExtra DALL500000Using where; Using temporary; Using filesort DLeq_refIDID4D.DLID1Using index The query takes ~ 3:30 on a Athlon xp2200; 1GB RAM; default bufer settings. Adding the following buffer settings only slightly decrerased the time (~3:00). key_buffer=512M table_cache=256 sort_buffer=16M read_buffer_size=16M It appeasrs that the 'Using filesort' on table D is due to the Group By clause and is the problem. I have an index on HLQ. Is there any way to get MySQL to use it?
Join Tables On A Large Database 200 Meg
i am trying to work out the most efficient way to list say multipl= e categories of entries, the database is quite large about 200 meg.=20 I would like to know if using join tables is more efficient than storing th= e keys in a varchar field then within the second loop doing a where in (1,2= ,3,4) where the 1,2,3,4 are the stored category keys in the varchar field = rather than a where in (1), where 1 is the pirmaryID of the entry for insta= nce ?

Join 2 Tables In SUM IF Statement-mysql
I am trying to join 2 tables with in a SUM IF statement. the code is as under: SELECT prod_code, description, description1, quant, SUM(IF(newsales.location = '05-P', newsales.quant,''))P, SUM(IF(newsales.location = '10-L', newsales.quant,'')) L, SUM(IF(newsales.location = '12-M', newsales.quant,'')) M, SUM(IF(newsales.location = '11-BI', newsales.quant,'')) Bi, SUM(IF(newsales.location = '14-BR', newsales.quant,'')) Br from newsales, stock where newsales.prod_code = stock.prod group by prod_code But it gives an incorrect output, but if I romove the join statement, it gives accurate resuly. How to join the 2 tables ie newsles and stock so that the output remains right.
SELECT From Two Tables + LEFT JOIN
Since MySQL v5 was released our script stoped working due to mysql query errors. i.e: SELECT a.id FROM table1 a, table2 b LEFT JOIN table3 c ON (c.id = a.id) This will return error: Unknown column 'a.id' in 'on clause' To solve this we can do in two ways: 1) change tables order in FROM statement: SELECT a.id, b.id, c.id FROM table1 b, table2 a LEFT JOIN table3 c ON (c.id = a.id) Or 2) use brackets in FROM statement: SELECT a.id, b.id, c.id FROM (table1 a, table2 b) LEFT JOIN table3 c ON (c.id = a.id) Both ways works, but I have question to the experts: which way is the most optimized/better?
Join 3 Tables - Distinct Results
I've got a database that keeps track of sales of widgets. Each company that belongs to my organiztion is to report their widget sales or no sales every month. There are several different types of widgets. Not all companies sell or report all types of widgets. We want to report how many companies have reported or not reported their sales (ie. x companies of a possible y companies have reported sales this month - y will always be the same - lets say 5). Because of the way that sales are input, "big widgets" are reported in 2 different tables called widgets_a and widgets_b. If they don't have any sales to report, they still report and it goes into a table called no_reports. Each table has a couple of common fields - ManufacturerID and OrderDate. I can search all of the tables individually to find if a manufacturer has reported - SELECT DISTINCT ManufacturerID FROM widgets_a WHERE OrderDate >= '2003-06-01' AND OrderDate <= '2003-06-30'; but I want to search through the 3 tables and find how many distinct manufacturers have reported in the given month.
