Working in Access, I need to create a
view which takes values from two different records in another table and puts them on one row in the view. I'm having a hard time doing this since both row items come from the same field in the original table (actually in this case, using views instead
of tables).
I have two queries I try to join together, but come up with the wrong results:
vwComp1:
SELECT q.CompStatus, q.EQID, c.CompsID, q.LastName, q.FirstName
FROM _EQ AS q, Comps AS c
WHERE q.CompStatus=1 AND c.CompsID=q.CompID
vwComp2:
SELECT q.CompStatus, q.EQID, c.CompsID, q.LastName, q.FirstName
FROM _EQAS q, CompsAS c
WHERE q.CompStatus=2 AND c.CompsID=q.CompID
vwAssignment:
SELECT vwComp1.*, vwComp2.*
FROM vwComp1, vwComp2
This does fine in the vwComp2 part of vwAssignment, in the sense that it displays the correct name information, etc.; but for vwComp1, it just takes the name and other fields from the first row of vwComp1 and repeats it on every row of vwAssignment. This
is really strange because vwComp1 and vwComp2, when displayed individually, each correctly puts the names in each row; something like this:
Bob White Rhonda Red
Bob White Freda Freschetta
Bob White Linda Lime
Bob White Jean Green
--when it should read something like this:
Bob White Rhonda Red
Fred Redd Freda Freschetta
Jim Brown Linda Lime
Rob Black Jean Green
Any suggestions?
