Assuming you have access to MySQL 4.0+ select csymbol from tblavgPrice where avg > 1 and avg < 10 UNION select csymbol from tblAssets where assets > 100 and assets < 500
Unless you say UNION ALL, you won't get duplicate values. For more details: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/UNION.html Just out of curiosity and because this is not the first time the INTERSECT question has come up. What SQL dialect are you coming from? IF you are using a MySQL server that is pre-4.0+, you will have to recode that query using any of several variations that use a temporary table. Let me know if you need that work-around.
