Hi, I hope this is the right forum for this question. If not, I'm happy to get some tip on where to post this. My problem: I have like 20 tables of data and need to merge these, making a selection, (and dump it into a text file) to import into a reporting tool. The tables is like salesrep, value of sales, number of customers, and som series of codes. If I do a JOIN, I only get the salesreps that exist in that specific table, but new people are added and some have left the company. How can this be done??

Re: How to merge my tables?
No, I don't have that. There's about 5-10% change in employees ids from every year, and no one took any interest in this system before I got it in my lap... Would it help to have one??

RE: How to merge my tables?
OK. No problem. We can hopefully still make this work with a temporary table. The SQL will look something like this: CREATE TEMPORARY TABLE tmp_sales_rep SELECT empl_id FROM Table_1998 UNION SELECT empl_id FROM Table_1999 UNION SELECT empl_id FROM Table_2000 SELECT t.empl_id, t98.sales98, t99.sales99, t00.sales00 FROM tmp_sales_rep AS t LEFT JOIN Table_1998 AS t98 ON t.empl_id = t98.empl_id LEFT JOIN Table_1999 AS t99 ON t.empl_id = t99.empl_id LEFT JOIN Table_2000 AS t00 ON t.empl_id = t00.empl_id Hope that helps, Shaunak Kashyap Senior Web Developer WPT Enterprises, Inc. 5700 Wilshire Blvd., Suite 350 Los Angeles, CA 90036 Direct: 323.330.9870 Main: 323.330.9900 www.worldpokertour.com Confidentiality Notice: This e-mail transmission (and/or the attachments accompanying) it may contain confidential information belonging to the sender which is protected.

Re: How to merge my tables?
I LOVE YOU!!! Great way of doing it. Never thought of creating that extra table and match against it... You really saved my day!! Now I just have to get rid of those rows containing nothing but NULL values (if I select years 2000 ... 2003 empl_id 1002 generates a row with all columns = NULL). I'll look in to it tomorrow, it's in the midddle of the night here and soon my backup system will start = no access to my server... Thanx again, this really got my out of my mindlock.
