Hi all, So I was attempting to for the first time to get data using the select statment here was my first syntax SELECT * FROM `contacts` WHERE 1 it returned all the records (as I wanted) 9050 records contact name address emaill etcc.. now there is another table called contacts_organization_types I wanted the corresponding output to come out in the same query so i tried this SELECT * FROM `contacts`,`contacts_organization_types` WHERE 1 now i got the same results as above- but instead of it adding the field to the list it returned each record from the contacts with every single cust_org_types for example first statement results; id first name last name email 1 jp natola second statment results; id first name last name email organaization type 1 jp natola NGO 1 jp natola MED 1 jp natola Donor 1 jp natola Education 1 jp natola Media How do i modify the statement to just give me the record with the actual value that is in the contacts record thanks _________________________________________________________________ Hotmail® goes where you go.
