Hi, That doesn't seem to be quite what I need. I basically have two tables with identical headers in the SQL database (not the best design, I know, but it evolved that way from something a lot simpler.)
I've managed to work out what the SQL statement (Postgres) would be to do what I want, if that's useful: SELECT * from (SELECT * FROM vip_comp_details UNION SELECT * FROM contact_details ) AS people where date > '2007-06-06' and date < '2007-06-07' order by date desc; The relevant part there is SELECT * from (SELECT * FROM vip_comp_details UNION SELECT * FROM contact_details ), I guess. I've not been able to find anything in the SQLObject docs for how to do this, so any help would be much appreciated :) Thanks, Nick Murdoch TiNo wrote: > Do a (left) join.
