RE: Having problem with query and multiple tables.
You would have to do a left join. Now this Is untested and it's been a long time since I've written one of these but it's something like SELECT p.name, p.product_id, p.content_id, p.creationdate, h.hits AS hits, h.clickthroughs AS clicks, s.pagetitle, s.parent, c.pagetitle AS category FROM Products p LEFT JOIN Product_Hits h ON p.product_id = h.product_id, ContentPages s, ContentPages c Where p.Status = 1 AND p.content_id = s.content_id AND s.parent = c.content_id ORDER BY #sortorder# Thank you, Katrina Chapman Center Manager Whittier Community Center 435-753-9008 > -Original Message- > From: Michael Grove [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] > Sent: Monday, May 22, 2006 12:15 PM > To: CF-Talk > Subject: Having problem with query and multiple tables. > > I have a query calling on data in multiple tables.

Yes, you need to create an outer join instead of an inner join: SELECT p.name, p.product_id, p.content_id, p.creationdate, h.hits AS hits, h.clickthroughs AS clicks, s.pagetitle, s.parent, c.pagetitle AS category FROMProducts p, INNER JOIN ContentPages s ON p.content_id = s.content_id INNER JOIN ContentPages c ON s.parent = c.content_id LEFT OUTER JOIN Product_Hits h ON p.product_id = h.product_id ORDER BY#sortorder# Of course, I wasn't able to test this query, but this should be in the ballpark.
