Please forgive me I am new to mySQL, could you give me an example of how I
would do this?  The two tables are users and staff

Count Rows in two tables

2002-11-12 Thread Rick Baranowski
Hello all,

Does anybody have a SQL string to count the rows in two different tables and
give you a total number of rows? I have been trying to find an answer for a
couple of days and seems like a simple string.

Thank you

Rick
