Can anyone tell me a more efficient way to structure this query? It works fast enough now, but I don't have that much data yet. I am concerned with future performance.
I need all of the rows from the project table that match the first where clause. The other information saves me from having to run a bunch of additional queries to get information that I need to display. select a.clientid, a.pid, a.writerid, a.dt_assigned, b.itemname, c.fname, c.lname, d.company from projects a, catalog b, clients c, partners d where a.writerid = 2 and a.sku = b.sku and a.clientid = c.id and c.partnerid = d.id; Thanks, David McInnis --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
