Roy Lambert NLH Associates ![]() | I have two tables
CREATE TABLE "Documents" ( "_fkContents" INTEGER NOT NULL, "_fkUser" VARCHAR(5) COLLATE "ANSI_CI" NOT NULL, "_Document" CLOB COLLATE "ANSI_CI" COMPRESSION 6, "_WG" VARCHAR(3) COLLATE "ANSI_CI" COMPUTED ALWAYS AS 'WPT' NOT NULL, CONSTRAINT "PK" PRIMARY KEY ("_fkContents", "_fkUser") ) CREATE TABLE "Contents" ( "_ID" INTEGER GENERATED ALWAYS AS IDENTITY (START WITH 0, INCREMENT BY 1) NOT NULL, "_Book" VARCHAR(30) COLLATE "ANSI_CI" DEFAULT '', "_Chapter" VARCHAR(30) COLLATE "ANSI_CI" DEFAULT '', "_Topic" VARCHAR(30) COLLATE "ANSI_CI" DEFAULT '', "_Link" INTEGER DEFAULT 0, "_Title" VARCHAR(50) COLLATE "ANSI_CI" DEFAULT '', "_CanEdit" BOOLEAN DEFAULT FALSE, CONSTRAINT "PK" PRIMARY KEY ("_ID") ) I want to select and display from the documents table eg SELECT _fkContents FROM Documents WHERE _Document CONTAINS 'geronimo' BUT and its a big but for me I want to show information from the Contents table. What I'd like for each row is: _fkContents, _Book, _Chapter, _Topic, _Title, title for book, title for chapter There are indices on _Book, _Chapter, _Topic and there will always be an entry for a book where _Chapter is '' and _Topic is '' and for a chapter where _Topic is '' I'm trying to shoehorn it into a single SQL statement and failing dismally. Before I give up and use a mixture of SQL and Delphi is it achievable and can anyone do it? Hope the explanation is good enough. Roy Lambert |

Roy Lambert NLH Associates ![]() | Went out, bought some more SF books and sused it:
SELECT _ID, _Book, (SELECT _Title FROM Contents X WHERE X._Book = Y._Book AND X._Chapter = '' AND X._Topic = '') AS _xBookTitle, _Chapter, (SELECT _Title FROM Contents Z WHERE Z._Book = Y._Book AND Z._Chapter = Y._Chapter AND Z._Topic = '') AS _xChapterTitle, _Topic, _Title FROM Contents Y JOIN Documents D ON _ID = _fkContents WHERE D._Document CONTAINS 'geronimo' Roy Lambert |
