A hopefully simple problem for some here ... I have a table full of categories, assigned ID #'s.
I store those category ID #'s in a comma delimited list in a field in a row of data for a business. A business can have more than one category. #1. I need to display a list of those businesses, along with the categories they are in. AS WELL AS #2. If I do a search by category, then I need to display a list of the businesses that have that category assigned to them. I was thinking it has something to do with "IN" but my query wasn't working ..... I *think* I'm also looking for a left outer join ... Select m.member, c.category from m.members LEFT OUTER JOIN c.categories where c.ID IN m.categories or something to that effect .... Help! :) ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Adobe® ColdFusion® 8 software 8 is the most important and dramatic release to date Get the Free Trial http://ad.doubleclick.net/clk;207172674;29440083;f Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:280455 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/cf_lists/unsubscribe.cfm?user=89.70.5
