For example..... Table 1: names Id | name 15 | George 16 | Suzy Table 2 : scores_1 Id | score 15 | 85 15 | 60 15 | 70 15 | 95 Table 3 : scores_2 Id | score 15 | 50 15 | 55 15 | 60 15 | 45 What I want to end up with is a selection that would pick up George and his highest score on score_1 and score_2 (i.e. George 95 60) Anybody have a pretty way to do this??? Thanks for any advice you can throw my way! anatole --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
