I have 2 tables containing the data for same items:
STORE1
-----------------------------
Id type items
-----------------------------
1 FOOD 10
2 FOOD 15
3 SOAP 20
STORE2
-----------------------------
Id type items
-----------------------------
1 FOOD 15
3 SOAP 10
4 PAPER 25
5 SOAP 12
What I am looking for is one single query that would return me TYPE-wise
total number of items from both the tables. UNION does not help me. I
want the result as:
Hmm, I don't see why UNION shouldn't work:
SELECT type, sum(items) as count
FROM (
SELECT type, items
FROM store1
UNION ALL
SELECT type, items
FROM store2
) t
GROUP BY type
