Hi David Thanks your response. I'm using Lasso but that's largely unimportant because I still need to get the data returned in a way that I can use it. I should not have said "displaying" - I meant "returning".
I need to return only one column from table A (there could be up to 14 records). I need to return the data in such a way that I can display the result horizontally, as column headings, with the data in table C still being correctly related to them. I need to return two columns from table B (there could be an unlimited number of records). I need to show this data vertically, with the first of the two columns as row headings. And they need to also correctly relate to the data in table C. I then need to return one column from table C (there could be an unlimited number of records) so that I can display them in their correct places as they relate to tables A and B. Table C has two foreign keys that relate to tables A and B respectively. I need to display something like this: A B C D E F G 1 1 X X 2 2 X 3 3 X 4 4 The A, B, C data comes from table A, the numbers from table B and the Xs from table C. Sorry, I'm probably not explaining myself very well. Can you suggest anything?
