Mathias/Everyone on the list
I am running the following query against the database:
SELECT demographic.demographic_no, demographic.first_name,
demographic.last_name, demographic.chart_no, demographic.sex,
demographic.year_of_birth, demographic.month_of_birth,
demographic.date_of_birth, demographic.family_doctor,
demographic.roster_status, demographic.patient_status, demographic.phone
FROM allergies, demographic, drugs, echart, dxresearch, ichppccode WHERE
demographic.demographic_no = '1' AND demographic.last_name LIKE 'TES'
AND allergies.demographic_no = demographic.demographic_no AND
demographic.demographic_no = drugs.demographic_no AND
drugs.demographic_no = dxresearch.demographic_no AND
dxresearch.demographic_no = echart.demographicNo AND
allergies.demographic_no = echart.demographicNo AND
dxresearch.dxresearch_code = ichppccode.ichppccode
Is the string at the end from, 'AND allergies.demographic_no =
demographic.demographic_no...', the correct way to create the JOIN I
require by demographic_no on five of the tables and then a JOIN of the
dxresearch and ichppccode tables by dxresearch_code and ichppccode
respectively? Any help or pointers would be much appreciated. Thank you!
