I just solved it using an ugly workaround. SELECT count(*) FROM table1 WHERE ObjectID IN( SELECT ObjectID FROM table1 t1 INNER JOIN table2 t2 ON t1.thisID = t2.thisID UNION SELECT ObjectID FROM table1 t1 INNER JOIN table3 t3 ON t1.thisID = t3.thisID ) Thanks all, George On 7/7/05, Claude Schneegans <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > >> > > SELECT count(*) > FROM ( > SELECT ObjectID > FROM table1 t1 INNER JOIN table2 t2 ON t1.thisID = t2.thisID > UNION > SELECT ObjectID > FROM table1 t1 INNER JOIN table3 t3 ON t1.thisID = t3.thisID > ) > > AFAIK, one can have a subquery in a WHERE or HAVING clause, but not inside a FROM. > How about making two separate queries and add their record count in CF? > > > > -- > _______________________________________ > REUSE CODE!
