hi list,
i have two tables:
idea(iid int not null primary_key auto_increment,
completed_by int,
submitted_by int);
employee(eid int not null primary_key auto_increment,
first varchar(20),
last varchar(30));
table idea data:
1 | 4 | 10
2 | 3 | 7
table employee data:
3 | john | Doe
4 | betty | smith
7 | bob | Gomez
10 | sun | mcnab
i'm trying to select from idea table such that when iid = 1, i should get
betty smith for completed_by column and sun mcnab for submitted_by column.
1st trial:
select iid,completed_by,submitted_by from idea where iid=1
i got:
1 | 4 | 10
2nd trial:
select idd,concat(first," ",last),submitted_by from idea,employee where
iid=1 and completed_by=eid;
i got:
1 | betty smith | 10
now, instead of 10 for the submitted_by column, how do i get sun mcnab?
thanks,
T. Hiep
