Hi, I am trying to do a 2 joins between 3 tables. ie) select <some field>, coalesce(TRR.ABC, SOC.ABC) as newABC, ... from A join (B join C on (..)) on (..)) as TRR left join (D join E on (..)) as SOC on (TRR.Field1=SOC.Field2) When I run this it says that there is an ambiguous field. Yes after the join for TRR and SOC they both contain a fields name ABC. How can I rename this field in the sql statement or how can I make it so the sql statement know that they are different. Please help.. .thanks -- Linh Luong Computalog Ltd.
