I have the following tables:
table1
-------
id1
some_field
table2
-------
id
id1
score
table3
-------
id
id1
score
I then have the following query:
SELECT table1.id,SUM(table2.score) as table2_score
FROM table1, table2
WHERE table1.some_field = 'value'
AND table2.id1 = table1.id
GROUP BY table1.id
This works fine and returns each record in table1, grouped by id, with
the sum of scores from table2. However, when I do this query:
SELECT table1.id,SUM(table2.score) as table2_score, SUM(table3.score) as
table3_score
FROM table1, table2, table3
WHERE table1.some_field = 'value'
AND table2.id1 = table1.id
AND table3.id1 = table1.id
GROUP BY table1.id
The sum'd score values go crazy, reflecting #s that aren't logical. Is
the issue that table2 and table3 are identical table structures, or that
I simply don't understand how the group by is really working here...?
Any advice is appreciated,
Eben
