I LOVE YOU!!!
Great way of doing it. Never thought of creating that extra table and
match against it... You really saved my day!!
Now I just have to get rid of those rows containing nothing but NULL
values (if I select years 2000 ... 2003 empl_id 1002 generates a row
with all columns = NULL).
I'll look in to it tomorrow, it's in the midddle of the night here and
soon my backup system will start = no access to my server...
Thanx again, this really got my out of my mindlock.
Regards,
/Johan

OK. No problem. We can hopefully still make this work with a temporary
table.
The SQL will look something like this:
CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE tmp_sales_rep
SELECT empl_id FROM Table_1998
UNION
SELECT empl_id FROM Table_1999
UNION
SELECT empl_id FROM Table_2000
SELECT t.empl_id, t98.sales98, t99.sales99, t00.sales00
FROM tmp_sales_rep AS t
LEFT JOIN Table_1998 AS t98 ON t.empl_id = t98.empl_id
LEFT JOIN Table_1999 AS t99 ON t.empl_id = t99.empl_id
LEFT JOIN Table_2000 AS t00 ON t.empl_id = t00.empl_id
Hope that helps,

No, I don't have that. There's about 5-10% change in employees ids
from
every year, and no one took any interest in this system before I got
it
in my lap...
Would it help to have one??

Do you have a table that has *all* your employees ids (empl_id)?

Subject: How to merge my tables?
Hi,
I hope this is the right forum for this question. If not, I'm happy
to
get some tip on where to post this.
My problem:
I have like 20 tables of data and need to merge these, making a
selection, (and dump it into a text file) to import into a
reporting
tool. The tables is like salesrep, value of sales, number of
customers,
and som series of codes. If I do a JOIN, I only get the salesreps
that
exist in that specific table, but new people are added and some
have
left the company. How can this be done??
A short example of the data:
Table_1998:
empl_id | sales98 | customers98 | etc98 | ...
1001 | 12659 | 123 | ffff | ...
1002 | 103674 | 597 | hued | ...
1003 | 23589 | 314 | hjeoir| ...
Table_1999:
empl_id | sales99 | customers99 | etc99 | ...
1001 | 35678 | 213 | dwrer | ...
1002 | 125795 | 603 | freui | ...
1003 | 45678 | 343 | hfiwu | ...
1004 | 8753 | 96 | poijo | ...
Table_2000:
empl_id | sales00 | customers00 | etc00 | ...
1001 | 97361 | 526 | urhfn | ...
1003 | 98716 | 649 | jdwoh | ...
1004 | 15872 | 147 | oijnm | ...
Now I try to get the customersXX columns for every emloyee from
these
tables.
What I would like to see in my result:
empl_id | customers98 | customers99 | customers00 | ...
1001 | 123 | 213 | 526 | ...
1002 | 597 | 603 | NULL | ...
1003 | 314 | 343 | 649 | ...
1004 | NULL | 96 | 147 | ...
I've tried everything and I'm out of clues.
Can it be done?? If so, how???
Any help/tips are very welcome!!
