This is such a simple SQL statement. So sorry for the question, but I can't get it to work. I'm trying to get a list of employees and the last time they worked on a job. FIles are. employee file : with empl_num = employee number job_history file : with empl_num, job_num, and last_date = last date the employee worked on a job Each employee has worked many jobs during his employment . so employee to job_history is 1 to many The sql is very simple and for some reason I keep getting a error saying the it can't reference stuff in the subselect to the file in the Select????? I have it working in all my other databases. ----------------------------------------------------- SELECT * FROM employee JOIN job_history ON job_history.empl_num = employee.empl_num AND job_history.last_date = (SELECT max(j1.last_date) FROM job_history as j1 WHERE j1.empl_num = employee.empl_num) --------------------------------------------------------- Just to simple - so what am I doing wrong????
I don't get any syntax errors for this statement. The problem must be in something you don't show. Quote the exact error message.
