I actually tried various combinations and nothing worked. Each reasonable attempt yields the same error - "OperationalError: no such table: curPhone".
The alias curPhone seems to be not pointing to the actual dataset which is phoneDS. It traces back to line 372 in dabo\db\dDataSet.py >From the error message, curPhone is the table being queried in the sql statement w/c may not be the case as the actual dataset is phoneDS. Just my thought. For a workaround, I created a Bizobj for the join. However, this dataset join issue still appears as a bug to me.
