Hye

I try to translate in MySQL language a problem which I mean is a UML partition constraint.


I explain:


There is a table A binded with a table B.
This table B is itself binded according to a B.P parameter:
either to a table C
either to a table D
but never to both.

I think one solution should be to do a first SELECT on B in order to determine B.P. Thus I should do again a SELECT on the 3 tables according to the B.P in the WHERE clause.

BUT I would like to do a one time SELECT on  A->B->C or A->B->D.
I cannot translate this constraint in SQL for MySQL.

Could someone who unsderstood this incomprehensible description help me. ;o)

In advance thanks a lot.

Greg
