Hello,

I am trying to put together a single query from across 4 tables and not having a problem getting the results needed. table structure:
######################################################
CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS job_posts (
  jobid int(6) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment,
  job_vacancy mediumtext NOT NULL,
  job_information mediumtext NOT NULL,
  job_procedure mediumtext NOT NULL,
  job_posttime varchar(10) NOT NULL default '',
  PRIMARY KEY  (jobid)
) TYPE=InnoDB;

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS school_job (
  jobid int(6) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
  schoolid int(6) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
  KEY jobid (jobid,schoolid)
) TYPE=InnoDB;

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS school_region (
  accountid int(6) unsigned NOT NULL default '0', # equal as schoolid
  region_id tinyint(2) unsigned NOT NULL default '0',
  country char(2) NOT NULL default '',
  PRIMARY KEY  (accountid),
  KEY region_id (region_id)
) TYPE=InnoDB;

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS school_access (
accountid int(6) unsigned NOT NULL auto_increment, # equal to

schoolid

groupid enum('sc_school','sc_user','sc_admin') NOT NULL default 'sc_school',
  username varchar(40) binary NOT NULL default '',
  password varchar(20) NOT NULL default '',
status enum('active','pending','expired','pending_paid') NOT NULL

default
'pending',
  acctdays smallint(4) NOT NULL default '0',
  regdate date NOT NULL default '0000-00-00',
  PRIMARY KEY  (accountid),
  KEY username (username,status,acctdays)
) TYPE=InnoDB;
##########################################################3

what we need to obtain in the query are the following.
all data from `job_posts', schoolid from `school_job`, country from `school_region` where `school_access` status = 'active'

the `school_job` and `school_access` tables are also used to tie(join)

too a
`school_profile` table(all personal data)

any help with optimizing a single query would be appreciated.




I can't see (based on your column names) how to associate one row from job_posts to any other row(s) in either school_region or school_access. Did you leave out a table definition (or two)? I can go through school_job to get at the schoolid but I still cannot relate to either of those tables. I need some way of matching either jobid to accountid or schoolid to accountid.

I have to have some way of tying those four tables together in order to build your query.

the `school_job` table should tie them together, the jobid and schoolid would tie them together in the `job_posts` table, the schoolid(in the `school_job` table), would be the same value as the accountid in the `school_access` and `school_region` tables, just assigned a different column name for other reasons.

by the way, this is MySQL Ver., 3.23.58 which I can not upgrade either

Hope this helps. :)
