Hi I have a relational db with a couple of tables holding things like comments and complaints and actions.
In the "main" table, I have the contact details. What I'd like to do is to query the db with a php app and to display the entries in the result set with a "last action/comment/contact" done one "max date". ie. main_table: id name surname date 1 john doe 2003-07-07 2 jane doe 2003-07-08 contact_table main_id date 1 2003-07-09 1 2003-07-12 2 2003-07-09 complaints_table main_id date 1 2003-07-10 2 2003-07-11 actions_table main_id action date 1 action1 2003-07-13 Now, querying the db for all the entries in main, i'd like to return something like: Name Surname Last action/comment/complaint John Doe action:action1 2003-07-13 Jane Doe complaint: 2003-07-11 -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
