One extra join will do it. You're looking for all improvws in the next seven days that aren't cancelled, right? $query = "SELECT members.email, members.firstname, members.lastname FROM improvws, improvwsattend, members WHERE improvws.wsdate > '$today' AND improvws. wsdate < '$sevenDays' AND improvws. cancelled=0 AND improvws.wsid = attend.improvwsid AND attend.attendeeid = members.id" Also, are you sure you don't want >= and <= ? > While this is getting the job done, it doesn't sit right because > it feels like I'm being inefficient.

That's because you were being inefficient. :) -- Bob IQ2GI5SCP2 Things You Don't Hear Every Day, #'s 16 and 17: A professor: "It's all right if you come to class high."
