If you would entertain a MYSQL/PHP, hope not too off-topicIt's 
probably not difficult to solve - but you would be helping me
with some SQL logic.

The only way I can think of to explain what I want to do
is to give you my working newbie MSQL/PHP code that I'm learning
MYSQL/PHP with, and at a certain point in the code below I'll state
exactly as I can what I want to try to do. It's probably
quite simple but I can't get it- Thanks:

...
<pre>
<?php
$dblink = mysql_connect ( 'localhost',  "guest", "password" );
mysql_select_db( "balloon", $dblink );
// Doing a FULLTEXT search
// Re the SELECT: I indexed both fields together, so seemed like
// I should put them both in the MATCH...OK, it works.
$query="SELECT * FROM balloon_txt WHERE MATCH(access_no, recs_txt)
AGAINST ('robin')";
$result = MySQL_query($query);

/////////////////////////////////
 OK, right here - next below I'm gonna display/loop $result from table
 balloon_txt. But, what I really want to do is take the "result set"
 access_no fields from the search above and (access_no is a Key in all
 my tables) and use it to generate results (ie. matching records) from
 another table called balloon_rec and dispaly/loop the results from
 balloon_rec. So I'm searching balloon_txt, getting results, but I want
 to display matching records from another table - balloom_rec. Is there
 a way to do a join or something in the SELECT above? Or do I process
 $result? Seems a join in the SELECT above or some SQL above is cleaner
 - but not sure how(?) Thanks, Lee G.
///////////////////////////////

while ( $row = mysql_fetch_row( $result ) ) {
 for ( $i=0; $i<mysql_num_fields( $result ); $i++ )
  {echo $row[$i] . " ;}
 echo"\n\n\n";
}
// Close the db connection
mysql_close ( $dblink );
?>
</pre>
