SELECT thankyou, thankyou FROM thankyou.thankyou WHERE thankyou = thankyou.
It's nice to end the weekend and go to bed with one small success!
Though my persistence is unending. ;-)


I added ORDER BY lastName on the end, et viola!

Thanks and goodnight!

Subject: my first select


I made a small DB of people and machines, where one person can have more than one machine, each machine can be assigned to only one person. people | machines, one-to-many. I have a primary key ID field in each table (peopleID, machineID) and in the machines table I have the peopleID, the foreign key.

So this should query should work, no?

SELECT lastname, model FROM people, machines WHERE machines.machinesID
= people.peopleID;

What happens is it simply produces a list of last names and a list of
machines in the order of each ID, they are not "matched" properly.
(It's really just 2 list.)

What might some of my problems be?

Thanks,
Ted
