Hello,

I need to query two different tables and create one "BIG" array.

I can query both tables, but can't find a way to combine the results in one 
array.
The problem comes in with the second table.  It has a weird layout.

The second table only has four fields. They are:  contact_id, contact_owner, 
contact_name, and contact_value

  a.. The 'contact_id' needs to be linked to 'id' field from the first table.
  b.. The contact_name is a field I need to use to reference what i'm looking 
for.
                    example... contact_name HAS values of RANO, PrevSys, 
Supplier, Dynamic
                    each of them has the same contact_id different 
contact_names with different contact_values


To query the second table I do something like this:

SELECT contact_value FROM egw_addressbook_extra WHERE contact_name='Supplier' 
and contact_id=' XXX'

The xxx is the ID from the first table.

I want to query both  tables and create a array.  The extra fields from table 
two need to have their own field in the array.
I need to call those extra fields in the array by the contact_name field...

example....   $myrow[supplier] $myrow[PrepSys] $myrow[name]


I have tried alot of stuff to get this done, but i think i was very off task.

Some help/guide is needed.... I'm new!!!!

Thanks...

Matt
