I'm having a problem with summing up joined tables.. can anyone help me? I have 3 tables that I am joining together
vpn, dialup, and userinfo vpn has the following columns (This was a premade table so i couldn't change username into user_id to link with userinfo) username session_time and other extraneous columns.. dialup has the following columns user_id session_time and other extraneous columns.. userinfo has the following columns id username first_name last_name and other extraneous columns.. dialup user_id joins with userinfo's id to get the username My query is as follows.. SELECT userinfo.First_Name, userinfo.Last_Name, (Sum(Dialup.Session_Time)/3600) as Dialup_Total_Hours, (Sum(VPN.Session_Time)/3600) as VPN_Total_hours FROM VPN LEFT JOIN user_info ON (VPN.Username = userinfo.Username) LEFT JOIN Dialup ON (userinfo.ID = dialup.User_ID) WHERE GROUP BY Username, First_Name, Last_Name If I don't do any joining.. and sum up session time by itself i get the correct # of hours. With this joining I get roughly a factor of 10x the correct amount.. Why is this the case? Can anyone help me fix it? I couldn't find any advanced sql query building topics on this through google, so I'm trying my luck here. thanks Alex -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
