Hi,

I have the following tables:

mysql> describe lawfac_pub;
+------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| Field      | Type         | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+
| hawkid     | varchar(16)  |      | PRI |         |       |
| emailalias | varchar(128) | YES  |     | NULL    |       |
| first_name | varchar(64)  | YES  |     | NULL    |       |
| last_name  | varchar(64)  | YES  |     | NULL    |       |
| title      | varchar(128) | YES  |     | NULL    |       |
| building   | varchar(128) | YES  |     | BLB     |       |
| phone      | varchar(64)  | YES  |     | NULL    |       |
| room       | varchar(255) | YES  |     | NULL    |       |
| notes      | varchar(255) | YES  |     | NULL    |       |
+------------+--------------+------+-----+---------+-------+

mysql> describe fac_stud_lunch;
+-------------------+------------------------+------+-----+---------------------+-------+
| Field | Type | Null | Key | Default | Extra |
+-------------------+------------------------+------+-----+---------------------+-------+
| instructor_hawkid | varchar(16) | | PRI | | |
| meal_time | datetime | | PRI | 0000-00-00 00:00:00 | |
| meal_type | enum('lunch','supper') | | | lunch | |
| location | varchar(128) | | | | |
| num_students | int(11) | YES | | NULL | |
+-------------------+------------------------+------+-----+---------------------+-------+


mysql> describe fac_stud_lunch_join;
+-------------------+-------------+------+-----+---------------------+-------+
| Field             | Type        | Null | Key | Default             | Extra |
+-------------------+-------------+------+-----+---------------------+-------+
| instructor_hawkid | varchar(16) |      | PRI |                     |       |
| student_hawkid    | varchar(16) |      | PRI |                     |       |
| meal_time         | datetime    |      | PRI | 0000-00-00 00:00:00 |       |
+-------------------+-------------+------+-----+---------------------+-------+



And this is my query I run from php:

SELECT DISTINCT lawfac_pub.first_name, lawfac_pub.last_name, date_format(fac_stud_lunch.meal_time, "%W, %M %D, %Y") as formatted_date, fac_stud_lunch.meal_time AS fac_stud_lunch_meal_time, fac_stud_lunch.instructor_hawkid, fac_stud_lunch.meal_type, fac_stud_lunch.location, fac_stud_lunch.num_students
FROM lawfac_pub INNER JOIN (fac_stud_lunch INNER JOIN fac_stud_lunch_join ON fac_stud_lunch.instructor_hawkid = fac_stud_lunch_join.instructor_hawkid) ON lawfac_pub.hawkid = fac_stud_lunch_join.instructor_hawkid
WHERE (((fac_stud_lunch_join.student_hawkid) Not Like 's1')) order by fac_stud_lunch.meal_time;


And I keep getting an error on the inner join. I've usually been able to get the syntax for joining 3 or 4 tables by using Access, but it seems to have failed me this time.

Any ideas why this select statement is failing?

Thanks,

Bob
