Hi
Thanks very much for your informative post Sinsia.
I rather thought that this was the whole purpose of this mailing list?
If I had all the answers and indeed the skills, I would not have posted to
the list in the first place.
I have been trying to find information in the web, and from books which sets
out in a very basic form how to actually do the different kinds of *join*
and trying to find out what it is with my script that is wrong, but to no
avail.
If you know that my problem is, or can point me to a site which will give me
the help I need, then I would be very grateful.
I am after all trying to learn mysql and am a beginner.
Regards
Sara
