Ok here are the details. I have a wish list/gift registry site (thewishzone.com). I have a table listing all the data on my users. I also have a table listing all the gifts my users want. Finally I have a table with gift giving events for the users. What I need to know is how many events and how many gifts each user has in the database so I can make certain changes to the content of the main user page on my site. Right now I just use 2 queries but I would like to do it in one just to reduce the code some what. I have other uses for similar queries but this is the main reason.
There may be other ways to get at the information you want. What is the purpose of your query?
