Re: Help with a query please
what about your query returning all the users UNION your query returning user 101? SELECT U.User_ID, U.User_Firstname, U.User_Lastname FROM Users U, Allocations A WHERE (U.User_ID = A.User_ID) AND A.Project_ID = '12' AND ( U.User_Type = 'Staff' OR U.User_Type = 'Manager' OR U.User_Type = 'Administrator' ) ORDER BY User_Firstname UNION SELECT U.User_ID, U.User_Firstname, U.User_Lastname FROM Users U WHERE (U.User_ID = 101) not sure to understand what you want to do with the join if you anyway want to retrieve user 101 and select only the parameters from the first table From: "shaun thornburgh" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: [EMAIL PROTECTED], mysql@lists.mysql.com Subject: Re: Help with a query please Date: Mon, 21 Feb 2005 13:24:55 + From: "Rhino" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "shaun thornburgh" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, Subject: Re: Help with a query please Date: Mon, 21 Feb 2005 08:22:29 -0500 - Original Message - From: "shaun thornburgh" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: Sent: Monday, February 21, 2005 7:28 AM Subject: Help with a query please > Hi, > > I am having trouble with the following query: > > SELECT U.User_ID, > U.User_Firstname, > U.User_Lastname > FROM Users U, Allocations A > WHERE (U.User_ID = A.User_ID OR U.User_ID = 101) > AND A.Project_ID = '12' > AND ( U.User_Type = 'Staff' > OR U.User_Type = 'Manager' > OR U.User_Type = 'Administrator' ) > ORDER BY User_Firstname; > > The query is meant to return all the users in the allocations table plus > user 101, however the query returns 15 instances of the 101 user along with > all the users in the allocations table... > What's the problem then?

Help with a query please
Hi, I am having trouble with the following query: SELECT U.User_ID, U.User_Firstname, U.User_Lastname FROM Users U, Allocations A WHERE (U.User_ID = A.User_ID OR U.User_ID = 101) AND A.Project_ID = '12' AND ( U.User_Type = 'Staff' OR U.User_Type = 'Manager' OR U.User_Type = 'Administrator' ) ORDER BY User_Firstname; The query is meant to return all the users in the allocations table plus user 101, however the query returns 15 instances of the 101 user along with all the users in the allocations table... Any help here would be greatly appreciated. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe:http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
