What results are you looking for, and what does your query look like?

An inner join on the three tables would give you every job at every
location.  If that is not what you want to show, you have to add other
criteria to limit your result set, or not join the tables if you are only
looking for job info and not location info.

HTH,

Cheers!

The reason I ask is because when I run a query against the job table, and I
inner join the locations and locations lookup table I get the same job
listed many times, presumably because it is listed many times in the
locations lookup table.

Any ideas on how I can stop it being listed multiple times?

Thanks

Sam
