Hi Boris,
Try this:
Select ifnull(position1,0)+ifnull(position2,0) As slno, title from book
where ifnull(position1,0)+ifnull(position2,0) <= 200 order by slno
Anvar.

I used this solution for a good reason : it seems cleaner than the
1..200 thing
:) Thank you so much !

no, i wasn't clear enough, let's try it again.
the table book contains :
|-- title -|--position1--|--position2--|--lots of other fields---
| bravenewworl
How about a query something like this:
SELECT position, title FROM WHERE position1 IN (1...200) OR position2 IN
(1...200);
Caviats:
1.) I don't do this everyday so that query syntax could be all wet
(probably is in fact). You may have to programaticly generate the IN
clauses to make it work.
hi fellow mysql users :)
i'm programming a little application, and i do the following :
for ($i=0 ; $i<200 ; $i++)
{
$result=mysql_query("select $i, title from book where position1=$i \
or position2=$i"); // this query returns only 1 row
$row=mysql_fetch_row($result);
