Hi everybody,

I have just switched a cf site from using a MSAccess database to mySQL . The
following query produces and error now (did work in MSAccess):

SELECT       t.transID, a.authorID, g.groupID, ts.transName
FROM         (tbl_authors a INNER JOIN tbl_groups g
                             ON a.GroupID = g.groupID)
                    INNER JOIN
                    (tbl_transcripts t LEFT JOIN tbl_transcriptionists ts
                             ON t.TransID=ts.TransID)
                    ON a.AuthorID = t.AuthorID
WHERE        t.status = 20


If I take out the LEFT JOIN statement and use this query instead, it works
just fine:

SELECT    t.transID, a.authorID, g.groupID
 FROM      (tbl_authors a INNER JOIN tbl_groups g
                         ON a.GroupID = g.groupID)
                INNER JOIN
                tbl_transcripts t
                ON a.AuthorID = t.AuthorID
 WHERE   t.status = 20

I am new to mySQL. Is there a limit to the number of nested joins in a
query? The error I get is:
