I've got a query I need that is a little over my head. Any pointers would be greatly helpful.
I want to populate a table based on two other tables. The problem is the values in those tables are reliant on two other tables.
USASite_Access SA_S_ID SA_C_ID
USAStation
S_ID
S_Name
USAContractor
C_ID C_Lname C_Fname
Station
S_ID
S_Name
Contractor
C_ID C_Lname C_Fname Site_Access
C_ID (Either C_ID or E_ID)
S_ID
Personell
E_ID
In psuedo-code it would be like this:
insert into USASite_Access
the ids from the two USA tables
so that the old site_access table information is converted to the new
IDs found on the USA tables.
So a match is found on the old site_access table to the old station table where the name is matched to the new USAStation table as one input.
A match is found on the old site_Access table to the old contractor table where the name is matched to the new USAContractor table as part of the other input. The rest of this is the match from the site_access table to the personnel table where a match causes the employee number to be used as the second input.
Should this be one query or multiple?
TIA,
Jerry
