Jerry, Please be assured that I meant no offence to you or anyone else
over on the mysql newsgroup. You personally have been of great help to
me in the past and I am very thankful and respectful for that. I've
looked again at all the replies on the mysql topic and if you look
again you will see that I was nothing but polite and responsive until
I was asked to explain the table design repeatedly. I was looking for
a quick solution to a simple problem. The reason I did not give more
info initially was because I didn't want to start a long discussion on
the way my tables were laid out - I simply wanted help with the syntax
of the query. From experience posting to these newsgroups, I know that
giving too much superfluous info can lead to very delayed solutions as
eager purists discuss the most efficient way to do things. I usually
only post here to find handy solutions to problems I cannot fix and
occasionally to help beginners in similar situations. I was impatient
- I apologise and I do appreciate your time.
