Not sure if I should post this to beginners or not but there it goes. I have 10+ tables with some of the same information in each in table of a mysql database. Here is an example:
Table 1 name count ---------+------- Widgets-A| 10 Widgets-B| 5 Widgets-C| 10 Widgets-D| 5 Widgets-E| 15 Table 2 name count ---------+------- Widgets-A| 15 Widgets-B| 5 Widgets-C| 10 Table 3 name count ---------+------- Widgets-D| 5 Widgets-E| 15 I need to take the names and add the counts up for between each table and I am not sure how to make that happen. I would be able to do a select query so that the values are all in one query, like this: name count ---------+------- Widgets-A| 10 Widgets-B| 5 Widgets-C| 10 Widgets-D| 5 Widgets-E| 15 Widgets-A| 15 Widgets-B| 5 Widgets-C| 10 Widgets-D| 5 Widgets-E| 15 So, how to I get the values to look like in variable so that I can push them back into a new table: New Table name count ---------+------- Widgets-A| 25 Widgets-B| 10 Widgets-C| 20 Widgets-D| 10 Widgets-E| 25 Any ideas? -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] <http://learn.perl.org/> <http://learn.perl.org/first-response>
