Surveys Readability Query: perform cross 6 table (joined or not) select, but constraining records to first table
hi everybody,
i need to perform a selection similar to the following:
which also gets the same result as a LEFT JOIN:
but where the previous query returns the 22 records in sheet Readable Query of the attached XLSX document.
however there are only 12 in the saved survey response rows (24_surveyresponse in the XLSX) from the dynamic database driven web form (screenshot is attached, and the form can be viewed here, firefox 4 recommended).
how would i be able to do a selection similar to the above, which only returns 12 records?
the other associated tables mentioned below are also sheets in the XLSX:
21_consumersurveys
19_consumers
22_surveyquestions
23_surveyoptions
5_suppliers
Some of the tables have been truncated to display only the required data selected, there are 3,279 rows if i do not constrain the data by grouping the temporary fields.
24_surveyresponse.bigint_R
the tables are in an excel workbook for easier viewing; formatting and aligning text on any forum is the pits!
basically, how can i select only 12 records from the available data.
constraining suppliers by another WHERE option returned 12 records but most of the fields are empty (Broken Query in the XLSX)
not sure if there is an easier way to go about it, but i seem to have gotten lost between the start of the query and the finish. please help!
Sincerely,
Pierre "Greywacke" du Toit
PS:
then again - if this issue somehow cannot be resolved with the current form, in the database selection, then perhaps i should simplify the query: save either the option / checkbox texts selected, or supplier names in the blank 24_surveyresponse.text_Con
the form is created with the following php function:
the data could then be sent via hidden fields. or picked up from the database in the handler somehow... but why send a bunch of text back to the database, when it's already in it? 0o
