I have been using a different database layout for years now .. and ready =
to go back to the database layout that many of you use..  So I am almost =
relearning how to do certain tasks ..

Here is what I have and what I need to do..

relationship table
id,owner,subobject,type, sort

content table
id,title,state...

department table
id,title,state...

product table
id,title,state...

ID's and SubObjects in the relationship table are from the content, =
department and product tables .. these id's can be in either column in =
the relationship table.

so I have=20

department id's
ID    SubObject    Type
A        B                Department
A        D                Content
B        A                Department
B        C               Product
B        F               Content
C        G               Department

Now If I want to show all types of SUBOBJECTS associated with ID B in =
the relationship table which would be A,C,F and group them by their Type =
and then order by the sort column, can this be done?

Or do I have to write three queries using the where type =3D =
'department'  and then another query where type=3D'content' and a third =
query where type=3D'product'?

Can I combine and then extract the groupings? so I can say Departments =
(output output output) Content (output output output) Products (output =
output output).

Thanks in advance
