If it's on MySQL, then the problem is that it doesn't support nested queries
:)

If it's on something else, i'm afraid i don't know :/

Back to MySQL, you can get around that by doing your "select author_code
from authorxcat" component query, then put the results into 'x', 'y', 'z'
format, then do something like
"select author_code from author where author_code not in ($previousResults)"
