Question

I am struggling to get this one to work!! i know its simple…

I have a table full of jobs, and a table containing locations (in order that new locations can be added dynamically and populate dropdowns etc.

What I want to do it return all jobs at one location (not a problem) they are assigned a location ID that corresponds with an ID per location (which contains job_location_ID, job_Location_name, job_Location_Country)

sql = "SELECT  [job_ID],
        [job_ref],
        [job_title],
        [job_description],
        [job_location]
FROM    [Web_Xtr_HR]
WHERE   (
          ( [job_ext_int_both] = 1 )
          AND ( [job_location] = " + theIndex + " )
        )
ORDER BY [job_ID] DESC"

This reads all the items in, so what i need to do, per result is include the job_Location_name that is associated, with the job_Location_ID in the other table ([Web_Xtr_Job_Locations])

help!

Use Inner Join like this:

"SELECT  [Web_Xtr_Job_Locations].job_Location_name,
        [Web_Xtr_HR].[job_ID],
        [Web_Xtr_HR].[job_ref],
        [Web_Xtr_HR].[job_title],
        [Web_Xtr_HR].[job_description],
        [Web_Xtr_HR].[job_location]
FROM    [Web_Xtr_HR]
        INNER JOIN [Web_Xtr_Job_Locations]
            ON [Web_Xtr_HR].job_location_id = [Web_Xtr_Job_Locations].job_location_id
WHERE   (
          ( [Web_Xtr_HR].[job_ext_int_both] = 1 )
          AND ( [Web_Xtr_HR].[job_location] = " + theIndex + " )
        )
ORDER BY [job_ID] DESC"
