Question

I have four tables

student
-------
id, int
firstName, varchar
lastName, varchar

course
------
id, int
name, varchar

semester
--------
id, int
name, varchar

mark
----
studentId, int
courseId, int
semesterId, int
mark, int

I want to make a sql query that retrives firstName, lastName, courseName, semesterName and mark for every row in the mark table.

I tried to do it with INNER JOIN but I can’t make INNER JOIN for more than one table.

That code I reached finally

select student.firstName, student.lastName, course.name, semester.name, mark.mark
from mark
INNER JOIN student ON student.id = mark.studentId
INNER JOIN course ON course.id = mark.courseId
INNER JOIN semester ON semester.id = mark.semesterId

Answer 1

In Ms Access you have to include parentheses in a query with multiple joins:

select st.firstName, st.lastName, c.name, sm.name, m.mark
from (((mark m
        INNER JOIN student st ON st.id = m.studentId)
        INNER JOIN course c ON c.id = m.courseId)
        INNER JOIN semester sm ON sm.id = m.semesterId)
