and if the same macaddress/timestamp can appear in more than one table and you need to coalsce the results, then union the macadress and timestamp from all the tables, then LEFT OUTER JOIN all the other columns from all the other tables. Proper indexes a must for non-trivial volumes of data (more than a dozen rows). select B.MacAdress, B.timestamp, result, user, text, error1, error2, errortext from (select macaddress, timestamp from checklog UNION select macaddress, timestamp from service UNION select macaddress, timestamp from error) as B LEFT JOIN checklog as c on c.macaddress = b.macaddress and c.timestamp = b.timestamp LEFT JOIN service as s on s.macaddress = b.macaddress and s.timestamp = b.timestamp LEFT JOIN error as e on e.macaddress = b.macaddress and e.timestamp = b.timestamp; _______________________________________________ sqlite-users mailing list sqlite-users@sqlite.org http://sqlite.org:8080/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/sqlite-users
