Hi, Mailing list: http://lists.mysql.com/
Joining three tables could be something like this. Select * from t1 INNER JOIN t2 ON t1.id = t2.id INNER JOIN t3 ON t2.id = t3.id I highly recomend you to read some basic SQL books before you carry on with your project. Trial and error is not always the better option. :-) Bye and Good Luck! --- Dj <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > And could not find where or if they have archives of > the list for my to > search though so I guess I will ask my question. > > > I was wondering how to go about joining 3 tables.
