Something like... SELECT DISTINCT formName FROM forms INNER JOIN procedures USING (formName) PB ----- Original Message ----- From: Robert Reed To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Wednesday, May 19, 2004 11:12 PM Subject: Help with Joins Greetings. I have a table that contains procedures and a table that contains forms. Each procedure may have 1 or more forms or it may have no associated forms. Each form may be relevant to more than 1 procedure. The procedure table has 1 entry per procedure. The forms table may have more than 1 entry per form depending on how many procedures use that form. Each form entry has a foriegn key tying it to the record number of the procedure. I want to compose a query that will pull out each distinct instance of a form (in other words, no duplicates) and then list which procedures use that form So: Form Name Procedure(s) Name Is this a clear enough explanation for folks? I'm willing to RTFM if somebody will point me to the chapter(s) that discuss different join syntax and how it's used in MySQL. I'm using 3.23.54 in my production environment at the moment and my tables are MyISAM.
