It worked like a charm! Many thanks for that great solution!

But, give it a try and see if it works and if it doesn't, tell me the error, and we'll continue from there. You'll have to substitute my col1, col2, etc with your actual column names. Best, Oliveiros SELECT query1.t1_id, t1.col2,t1.col3,t1.col4, query1.minimum FROM ( SELECT t3.col2 as t1_id, MIN(t2.col2) as minimum FROM Table_3 t3 JOIN Table_2 t2 ON t3.col1 = t2.col1 GROUP BY t3.col2 ) query1 JOIN Table_1 t1 ON t1.col1 = query1.t1_id ----- Original Message ----- From: Swärd Mårten To: pgsql-sql@postgresql.org Sent: Thursday, March 01, 2012 10:30 AM Subject: [SQL] Aggregate and join problem Hi folks I have some troubles to create a SQL-query and my hope is that someone of you could help me with this.. It's somewhat difficult to explain what I want to do but I'll give it a try and see if you can understand the problem.. Ahh fuck this.. It's almost imposible to explain.. J I don't understand what it mys self after I have written it.. Read and see if you understand.. J I have three tables: Table_1: A table with meta data for areas (names, geometries and so..). Every area has a unique id. Example: 101 | 'small area' | 'area name' | geom 102 | 'small area' | 'area name' | geom. 103 | 'small area' | 'area name' | geom. 104 | 'LARGE area' | 'area name' | geom Table 2. A table with values for some smaller areas. Contains a reference to an id in table1 and a value Example: 101 | 12.5 102 | 5.5 103 | 6.5 Table_3: A cross reference table with id:s for witch areas are connected to each other. Eg. What smaller areas that's is inside a larger area. A larger area could have many smaller areas connected to it Contains a reference to table 1 for the smaller areas and a reference to table 1 for the larger area. Example: 101 | 104 102 | 104 103 | 104 What I want to do is the following: The larger area should "inherit" the lowest value from the smaller areas that are connected to it. I want to be able to get all larger areas and let them have a value that is the lowest value from table 2. If you look at the example data I only want to get the larger area (104) from table 1 with a value from table 2 that is the lowest value of the areas connected to id 104. The result would be: 104 | 'LARGE area' | 'area name' | geom. | (value from table 2 id 102) Best regards, Mårten
