MYSQL :: Getting Data Out Of Multiple Tables And Join

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.

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 ...

Select And Join For Multiple Tables
I have five tables in my database, there are actually NO common fields
between them, not even a KEY or ID or anything like that, except for
the "body" of a blob field. and that text is not identical, just a
portion of that text is identical.

each table has 5 fields, all different except the blob, which is
called "message", so normally I use something like:

select * from table1 where message like '%apple%';

to query this table, and the same goes for table 2, except the blob is
different, table 2 normally is like this:

select * from table2 where message like '%customerid=453%';

It's impossible to change the data in these fields (which would be the
best option), but there is one common element between them in the
message blob.
What I want to do is something like this:

select * from table1, table2 where message like '%order=100%';

however only one table will have that order, either table1 or table2,
but never both, and theres no way to tell which of the tables will
actually have the text.

In other words, I want to search a bunch of tables for common text
without having to actually submit the query five times, because the
list of elements to search is about 25,000 items... I'd rather submit
25,000 queries than 125,000 queries.

Join To Multiple Tables With Conditions
activities , projects, AND project_messages, project_writeboards, project_art_work ...etc

the projects_messages and project_writeboards belongs to projects, and the activities model have the following fields:

id, user_id, action, item_id, item_type, created_at, updated_at.

im trying to do some joins to get a specific project activities from the diferent project_*models*. so this is my sql:

SELECT `activities`.* FROM `activities`
join project_writeboards on item_id = project_writeboards.id and item_type = "ProjectWriteboard" AND project_writeboards.project_id = 1
join project_messages on item_id = project_messages.id and item_type = "ProjectMessage" AND project_messages.project_id = 1

but i can get it to work, but if i do only one join , like:

SELECT `activities`.* FROM `activities`
join project_writeboards on item_id = project_writeboards.id and item_type = "ProjectWriteboard" AND project_writeboards.project_id = 1

Self Join (?) To Get Data For Multiple Users From One Table
I am trying to generate a report containing ebay feedback scores for multiple users. Here is the database structure for the table that contains the scores:

TABLE: feedback

identities_id int(10) <- contains the user id which is stored in another table
feedback int(10) <- contains the feedback score for a specific date and time
date_recorded datetime <- date the feedback was captured
I need to get the feedback scores for let's say two users (I will want up to five but I figure the query will be almost the same) over a thirty day period. Here is the query I have created thus far (which does not return the correct results):

mysql
SELECT user1.feedback AS user1feedback
, user2.feedback AS user2feedback
, UNIX_TIMESTAMP(user1.date_recorded) AS date_recorded
FROM feedback as user1
LEFT JOIN feedback as user2 ON user1.date_recorded = user2.date_recorded
WHERE user1.identities_id = 1
OR user2.identities_id = 2
AND user1.date_recorded > NOW() - INTERVAL 30 DAY
ORDER BY date_recorded ASC

This returns virtually the same data for both users which means I am not distinguishing the two properly.

Select Data From 2 Tables (join) REGARDLESS Of One Table Not Containing A Row
SQL
SELECT o.title, o.quantity, o.price, o.product, i.supplierFROM store_order_inv o, store_inventory iWHERE o.product = i.productAND o.cart_order_id = ?-195509-3867'

my only problem is if a row with Product ID doesnt exist in inventory, no result is returned, EVEN if a row exists in order_inve table with that product.

So my question is, is it possible to select data from 2 tables, but where the presence of a row with matching PRODUCT field in the inventory table is OPTIONAL

Data From Multiple Tables
I am working on a website about sea shells and basically I have 3 tables:

- shell_tb; (table of shells)
- site_tb; (sites where they can be found)
- instrmt_tb; (instruments used for it)

As you may already have guessed there are two columns in shell_tb (site and inst) which may use more than one item from the site_tb and instrmt_tb.
1st. How do I configure the columns in shell_tb in order to accept more than one value?
(I tried:

CREATE TABLE shell_tb (
shell_id INT(1) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
shell_name CHAR(40) NOT NULL,
site INT(20) NOT NULL,
inst INT(20) NOT NULL,
PRIMARY KEY (shell_id)
) TYPE=MyISAM;

but no luck at all when inserting more than on value into inst column.) 2nd. How do I retrieve the info from there?

Selecting Data From Multiple Tables
I have three related tables. tv_observersation, which contains stationID with the start time and end time for a tv station program viewed (the stationID isn't a key field as the same station can be viewed different times). A stations table, which contains the stationID and the station_Name, and an advertisement table, which contains a list of advertiserID and which stationID they are subscribed too (a one to many table).

I am trying to generate a query, that would take out info i.e, the info from only stations that a specific advertiser has subscribed to in the advertisment table, but I am getting duplicate info in the query results from the observations table for a specific table. I think it may be a problem with how I am using the select statement. Do I want to select from two tables observations, stations like I am below, or should I use the other two (stations, and advertisments) with the inner join statement.

The objective is to retrieve only the stations that a advertiser is subscribed to from the observations table. Code:

I have 3 tables where Product col is the same across all 3.

Tables
id /Product / Price

So far I have been using
$query = "Select `product`, `price` as p, 'tbl1' as n from `tbl1` where `product` REGEXP '".$trimmed."'
UNION ALL
Select `product`, `price` as p, 'tbl2' as n from `tbl2` where `product` REGEXP '".$trimmed."'

How To Pull Data From Multiple Tables
I have a db, with several tables in it, I have now reached to the point where I need to pull data from several tables. What is the best way to do this?

Should I put a column in each table, and then insert a unique key in all of them at the time the record(row) is being created? If this is the way to do it, when I am putting the unique key in each table would I just do an insert in each of the tables?

Pull Data From Multiple Tables
Can you pull data from 2 tables in the same database onto the same page? What about more than 2 tables?

Here is my dilema: I currently have a database with 1 table, and a ton of rows. The information is property information, and each property has multiple empty suites. As of now, I have columns for Building Name, Address, and then columns for Unit Type A (for the first unit), Rent A, Type B, Rent B, etc....

I was wondering if I would be able to put the listings we have into thier own property table, and then one bigger table of all the properties individual information. Keep in mind I need to call all tables together on my portfolio pages, so I would be connecting to quite a few tables at once.

Or my other option I was thinking about was to just have 2 tables: 1 Buildings info, and 1 units info.

Which of these would you do, or how would you organize this data.

Inserting Data Into Multiple Tables
I am just learning both MySQL and PHP, and have a question about a project I am working on. The first (and main) table for this project has the basic information about an refund request, including an autoincrement unique ID. Another table includes the products and uses the ID as a reference. The third table is the history of everything that happens to the request. For example, the information may be as follows.

Credit table
ID - autoincrement
status - requested, needs authorization, processed, etc
agent - who entered the request
customer - person requesting the refund
other customer info
order table
ID - reference to Credit table
Item - item ID for amount requested
quantity - number purchased
price - price of each item
(total information is calculated on above fields)
history table
ID - reference to credit table
seq - id for each history log
old status - the previous status
new status- the status after the update to the record
agent - agent making the change
notes - a description of what was done.

I have the PHP form that collects the data to be entered. My question is, since the first table is an autoincrement, what is the best way to insert a record into the Credit table, pull the ID that was just entered into the credit table and insert that ID into the order and history tables?

Complex - Extracting Data From Multiple Tables - Plz Help
I have spent more than 24 hours now just trying to build a query to extract data from multiple tables (which are a bit typical) in the format I need but in vain and I am goin MAD now . Any help would be really apprecaited.

I have 5 tables: items, table1, table2, table3, and table4

table1, table2, table3, and table4 have got 368 columns each (366 representing each day of a year plus two additional columns - see below in structures)

structures are as follows:

items: ITEMID, TITLE, DESC ...

table1: ITEMID P1JAN01, P1JAN02, ... P1JAN31, P1FEB01, P1FEB02, ...P1FEB29 ... P1DEC01, P1DEC02 ... P1DEC31, YEAR

table2: ITEMID P2JAN01, P2JAN02, ... P2JAN31, P2FEB01, P2FEB02, ...P2FEB29 ... P2DEC01, P2DEC02 ... P2DEC31, YEAR

table3: ITEMID P3JAN01, P3JAN02, ... P3JAN31, P3FEB01, P3FEB02, ...P3FEB29 ... P3DEC01, P3DEC02 ... P3DEC31, YEAR

table4: ITEMID P4JAN01, P4JAN02, ... P4JAN31, P4FEB01, P4FEB02, ...P4FEB29 ... P4DEC01, P4DEC02 ... P4DEC31, YEAR

Yes they are funny but that's the way they are.

Note: Please note the month names within the column names

Now I need to select SUM of a given month (say JAN) for a particular ITEMID from each of the tables for a given year (say 2006)

for SUM i am using:

PHP

$p1 = "P1JAN01 + P1JAN02 + P1JAN03 + ... P1DEC31"
$p2 = "P2JAN01 + P2JAN02 + P2JAN03 + ... P2DEC31"
$p3 = "P3JAN01 + P3JAN02 + P3JAN03 + ... P3DEC31"
$p4 = "P4JAN01 + P4JAN02 + P4JAN03 + ... P4DEC31"

and then

SELECT $p1, $p2, $p3, $p4 ...

A basic query that I first tried was:

PHP

SELECT
$p1 AS P1,
$p2 AS P2,
$p3 AS P3,
$p4 AS P4
FROM items
LEFT JOIN table1 on table1.ITEMID = items.ITEMID
LEFT JOIN table2 on table2.ITEMID = items.ITEMID
LEFT JOIN table3 on table3.ITEMID = items.ITEMID
LEFT JOIN table4 on table4.ITEMID = items.ITEMID

WHERE

table1.YEAR = 2006 &&
table2.YEAR = 2006 &&
table3.YEAR = 2006 &&
table4.YEAR = 2006

This acts very funny...fetches me only the results which have got entries in all the tables. If there's no entry in any of the tables for a given item then that item is not fetched at all.

The result set i need is something like this

PHP

ITEMID        P1      P2       P3        P4
1            NULL     56       63      NULL
2             36        0     1253     63
3            NULL    NULL     NULL     NULL

and so on...

and these all must be for a given year

I tried playing around with the query with different joins and work arounds but no use. I really need this done soon. I'll be really thankful if you can suggest me anythig that can get me the result set i need. Please let me know if I am not clear anywhere.

Multiple Tables Of Data, Single Category Table
I've searched and can't find what I'm after, so apologies if this has been covered before. I'm working on a small and simple CMS for a site I'm doing, and just as I was going to start the database I realised something...

(I'm using PHP and MySQL)

When it's finished, there will be articles, weblogs and content/features. Previously I've done a seperate categories table for each table I have, for example articles and articles_cats. Then a field in the articles table for the category. Now I'd like to use the same categories table for everything on the site.

However, I'd really like to have a link table, so each article can have multiple categories. Would I have a table to link articles and cats, then a table to link weblog posts and cats?

MYSQL: Retrieve One Row With Data From JOINED Tables With Multiple Matching Rows
I'm not sure this is possible in one SQL query:

I have a table called TB_EMAIL and another called TB_OTHER_BLOB.

TB_EMAIL contains details like: to, from, subject, body and since I will be reusing headers and footers I aslo store header and footer reference to TB_OTHER_BLOB in TB_EMAIL.

What I need is a row (given its id) with all columns (except the references to TB_OTHER_BLOB) from TB_EMAIL and two extra columns one being email_header and the other email_footer which are in two different rows in TB_OTHER_BLOB

What I came up with is:

LEFT JOIN? RIGHT JOIN? Multiple JOIN?
Simplifying this down to its basics, I'm using LEFT JOIN in a query but I'm not getting the results I want.

The tables are:
table services
service_id
service_name

table services_provided
service_id
service_date (date field)
cust_id
service_quantity

I need to select ALL services from the services table, and the number of services provided (by a specific customer, in a specific time frame) from the services_provided table, so that I can generate a list that shows services provided by that customer in the specified period of time

The query:

SELECT service_date, service_name, service_quantity
FROM services
LEFT JOIN services_provided ON services_provided.service_id = services.service_id
WHERE cust_id = $cust_id
AND MONTH(service_date) = 10
AND YEAR(service_date) = 2007
GROUP BY service_id
ORDER BY service_id
(Aside: The date to be selected varies - it may be the whole year, or may be a selection of months,such as 1, 2 or 3. This is determined dynamically in the script. The cust_id is determined by which customer is logged in.)

I'm pretty sure that the left join as I have it should return all services, even if there's no corresponding entry in the services_provided table.

But because of the WHERE clause, I don't get a complete list of all services -- if the customer doesn't have any entries for a particular service, that service doesn't come up in my results.

Do I need to change how I'm joining the tables, or join them twice? I'm sure I could do this with a nested query, but I'm trying to avoid that.

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.

Multiple Row Join?
I have two tables - one called parent, the other called group.

table group is made up of ID,parentID,groupHash and groupName.

table parent is made up of ID,title,group1Hash,group2Hash,group3Hash (and
other columns)

Each of the group hashes in table parent correspond to a group hash in table
group (ie parent.group1Hash exists in/as group.groupHash and
parent.group2Hash also exists (on another row) in/as group.groupHash).

This means table parent can have up to three groupHash's noted in a single
row and each of these groupHash's will have its name in a corresponding row
in table group (using groupHash as key).

Can I perform a select whereby I read a row from parent and use its
group1Hash, group2Hash and group3Hash to retrieve their corresponding names
from table group (all in one select statement)? Or must I perform three or
four individual selects to get the desired values from the two tables.

Confused By Multiple JOIN
My query is giving me a syntax error. How do I do this?

Code:

SELECT t.id, t.title, t.name, t.company, t.address, t.country,
t.postcode, t.telephone, t.email, tm.msg, ts.site
FROM trials AS t
LEFT JOIN trials_sites AS ts ON (ts.trial_id = t.id)
LEFT JOIN trials_msg AS tm ON (tm.trial_id = t.id)
LEFT JOIN trials_times AS tt ON (t.id = tt.trial_id)
LEFT JOIN trial_days AS td ON (tt.day_id = td.id)
WHERE td.day = 'Monday'
ORDER BY t.id DESC

I definitely want a whole row from `trials. But each row may have a row associated with it from each of the joined tables. In the case of the `trial_times` table, there may be more than 1 associated row - or none.

Is it possible to execute a query like this?

Multiple Join Query
I have a database with quite a lot of tables all with foreign keys of each other. One of the tables has a one to many relationship (it being the one) with two tables, but it only uses one of them for any one record. Which one is used depends on a field in the main table. This essentially defines three different types of the same item, which has mostly the same fields, but two of them also require additional, multiple record (hence the one to many) information. So the table has a field 'type' which takes the value 1 (in which case no other table is referenced), 2, (in which case the first other table is used) and 3 (in which the other table is used).

What I would ideally like to do is have one SQL query which returns information (from the main table) about any record which applies to the day (as it is part of a calendar system) specified in the query. The problem is that to decide if the record is relivent, the query must look through at most two of the three tables. I doubt that there is a way to specify in an SQL query to join to a table depending on the field of the first, and to join all three and perform the query could produce unexpected results if there were for any reason records in the third which referred to the first table. I could do this with several queries, but it would probably be more efficient to do it by one query. Would I be able to do an outer join on this?

I have a table where each row has multiple foreign keys. What I'd like to do is a JOIN where each row of the returned resultant table contains all the data from each table that each row points to.

For example, say there are 2 tables, MainTable and SecondaryTable. MainTable has 2 columns, each of which use a foreign key to point to records in the SecondaryTable like so: ......

Multiple Inner Join Within The Same Table
I want to create a new table from an image table where the columns would be the image_path where image_type =1 and image_type=2 for images with the same slide_id. I used the following query with an error:

select slide_id, image_path as thumb_path from image as thumb where thumb.image_type=1 inner join image.image_path on image.slide_id=thumb.slide_id where image.image_type=2;

Below is the image table:
image
image_idslide_idimage_typeimage_path
111/Image/full.jpg
212/Image/thumb.jpg
321/Image/full.jpg
422/Image/thumb.jpg
531/Image/full.jpg
632/Image/thumb.jpg
741/Image/full.jpg
842/Image/thumb.jpg

Multiple JOIN Problem
I have tables: gallery_album, gallery_photo, node.

On node, the important columns are: type (type must be "gallery"), nid (integer node id), uid - node owner id.

On gallery_photo, the important colums are: nid (relates photo to node entry), album_id - relates photos to gallery_album entries.

On gallery_album, the important colums are: id (must match album_id in gallery_photo), title, must not be empty (check for <> "" does the trick), owner_id

For every node entry of type "gallery" there exists exactly one entry in gallery_photos - one to one relationship.

For every gallery_album entry there exists any number of gallery_photo and node entries - one to many relationship.

I know the user id, I need to return albums belonging to that user together with photo count in that album and newest photo from that album (specified by nid and node.created timestamp).

If album has 0 entries, I still need it!

The problem is that I need to LEFT JOIN (right?) TWO tables (gallery_photo, nodes) on ONE (gallery_album), how do I do that?

Multiple Batabases Vs. Multiple Tables
I am about migrate from an old program database to MySql (Running under RH
LINUX)and I'm wondering which is the best option to do :

I currently have one file for each of my modules, (I'm using filepro plus) ,
so like CUSTOMER, WARRANTY, ZIPCODES, INV, etc... like 2,000 files each with
their own fields.

1) Should I create multiple databases on MySQL

2) Should I create a single database on MySql and with multiple tables ?

Which one of these options is the best and more safer ?
