I agree with you on the usefulness of UNION queries, and just want to add one comment which really has little to do with this thread, but concerns maximizing the utility of UNION queries. I commonly see in other people's code such column names as ServiceName, ProductName, etc. I never name columns in this way. Instead I call both columns Name, and distinguish them with the tableName prefix: Services.Name and Products.Name. That way UNIONs are effortless, while the tableName prefix sidesteps ambiguity. My $.02. :) Arthur. DWUTKA at marlow.com wrote: >Glad to help. Gotta love those UNION querries, they make life soooo much >easier! > >Drew > > >
