I need left-outer-join help that has added complexity beyond the simplified example I gave
This query below works perfect if used by itself except doesn't have the outer join feature query = ((db.StaffPosition.jobClassification==db.JobClassification.id)& (db.StaffPositionOrganization.staffPosition==db.StaffPosition.id) & (db.StaffPositionOrganization.organizationID==specificOrganization.id) & (db.StaffPosition.superObjectID==db.auth_membership.superObjectID) & (db.auth_membership.group_id==db.auth_group.id) & (db.auth_group.roleType==50)) All records are correct But if I run grid using it below, it generates way too many rows grid = SQLFORM.grid(db.JobClassification, left = db.StaffPosition.on(query)) If I change grid to look like below, it gets better but still has a couple of extra rows. grid = SQLFORM.grid(db.JobClassification, left = [db.StaffPosition.on(query), db.auth_group.on(query), db.auth_membership.on(query), db.StaffPositionOrganization.on(query)]) There only one outer join needed (JobClassification and StaffPosition) but the above "left" arguments seem to help. If I simplify query like below, it works perfect in grid with left outer join, but it doesn't have the additional tables to create needed fields. query = ((db.StaffPosition.jobClassification==db.JobClassification.id)) Any tips appreciated, Alex Glaros -- Resources: - http://web2py.com - http://web2py.com/book (Documentation) - http://github.com/web2py/web2py (Source code) - https://code.google.com/p/web2py/issues/list (Report Issues) --- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "web2py-users" group.
