I have a database tracking registrations of software products with two related tables, "registered_products" and "people". I need to pull a list of email addresses from the people table BUT I only want to pull people records who own very specific combinations of products from the registered_products table.
Let's say I want people who own both Product A AND Product B... My first guess
is to write a query like this:
select
distinct email_address
from
people
join
registered_products on people.person_id = registered_products.person_id
where
registered_products.product_type = "Product A" and
registered_products.product_type = "Product B"
However, this does not work, no rows are returned. When I think about it, that makes sense, because rows are evaluated one at a time, and no single product row can simultaneously have two values for the column "product_type".
I need to only get results from a person record that has two related registered_product rows, one
with a value of "Product A" and one with "Product B".
What is the best way to write a query to do this?
Thanks,
Ben
