I've managed to get the view I wanted by using sub-selects - as shown below,
but I now have the 'lid' field showing in the resulting view three times (as
lid, lnid and lnaid). How can I remove lnid and lnaid from the result?
create view loco_dets as
select * from locos l
left outer join
lclass lc on lc.lcid = l.lclass
left outer join
lnumbers n on n.lnid = l.lid and n.lncurrent = true
left outer join
(select lnid as lnaid, concat(lnumber) as lnalternate from
(select lnid, lnumber from lnumbers where lncurrent = false order by lnid,
lnumber) alt
group by lnaid) na on na.lnaid = l.lid
left outer join
company c on c.coid = lc.lcompany;
