how does one apply the JOIN... USING (...) syntax when the primary key and foreign key have different names?
JOIN t_employee USING (employee_id) works perfect when the primary and foreign key are both named employee_id. however, it one is named inspector_id and the other employee_id, it doesn't work - or at least i haven't been able to find the appropriate syntax through searching and trial and error. tia... __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!?
