Help with Joins

  • Use the same table with Alias for each field like employees mgr on mgr.id=a.mgr_id , employees emp1 on emp1.id=a.emp1_id so on..

  • D'oh!  I had a Homer moment!

    It makes sense.  I just got stuck in one train of thought and I couldn't see the answer right in front of my eyes.

    Thanks.

  • select   a.department,a.mgr_id,b.mgr,a.emp1_id,c.emp1,a.emp2_id,d.emp2

    from     dept_table a

    join      employees b

    on       a.mgr_id = b.emp_id

    join      employees c

    on       a.emp1_id = c.emp_id

    join      employees d

    on       a.emp2_id = d.emp_id

    order    by a.department

    Just replace emp_id with whatever the column name is in employees that represents the employee ID. 

  • Exactly I too meant the same, Thanks for elaborating. I believe hawg already has the solution for it.

  • Yeah, thanks to both of you.  I immediately realized the answer with Prasad's response.  I just got myself pigeon-holed and missed figuring it out on my own.

    Thanks again.
