The problem with using...
LEFT JOIN t_PI_Companies c1 ON (c1.CompanyID = m.BrandID)
LEFT JOIN t_PI_Companies c2 ON (c2.CompanyID = m.LabelID)
LEFT JOIN t_PI_Companies c3 ON (c3.CompanyID =
m.ManufacturerID)
LEFT JOIN t_PI_Companies c4 ON (c4.CompanyID = m.PublisherID)
LEFT JOIN t_PI_Companies c5 ON (c5.CompanyID = m.StudioID)
Is that the column "CompanyName" in the "t_PI_Companies" table isn't aliased
for each join so whatever the "BrandID" is from the main table is returned 5
times simply as "CompanyName". What I need is some way for the
"CompanyName" to be returned 5 times with 5 different names so each can be
accessed separately.
I could do it by leaving out the companies and simply querying them
separately but I would prefer one query to six if at all possible.
