Display field of selected record from full table recordset

2004-07-25 Thread Robb Kerr
I have a recordset that retrieves the full content of the table - all
fields, all records. Depending upon the content of different fields in
different tables, I need to display certain fields of certain records
within the full recordset. What's the syntax for selecting a particular
record for display relative to the field contents of another recordset?

Thanx,

You probably want to pick up a good SQL book.  MySQL by Paul DuBois is
a really good one.

You want to use the WHERE clause of the select statement.

SELECT table.some_column, table.another_column, ...
   FROM table
 WHERE some_column = 'some_value'

see the manual:
