Question

I have the following 3 data tables

Options Table
UID (pk) SID (pk) TID (pk)
--------------------------
1        20       2
1        20       3
1        13       3
1        14       4

Types Table
TID (pk) TText
--------------------------
1        Text 1
2        Text 2
3        Text 3
4        Text 4

Sets Table
SID (pk)  SText
--------------------------
13        Set 13
14        Set 14
20        Set 20

I am trying to get the output as follows, with only 4 rows from the options table, but with the corresponding text from the other 2 tables. My joins seems to be off tho.

The result I want is:

UID (pk) SID (pk) TID (pk)  SText      TText
------------------------------------------------------
1        20       2         Set 20     Text 2
1        20       3         Set 20     Text 3
1        13       3         Set 13     Text 3
1        14       4         Set 14     Text 4

Answer 1

SELECT  a.*, b.Stext, c.TText
FROM    Options a
        INNER JOIN Sets b
            ON a.SID = b.SID
        INNER JOIN  Types c
            ON a.TID = c.TID

UPDATE 1

add DISTINCT

SELECT  DISTINCT a.*, b.Stext, c.TText
FROM    Options a
        INNER JOIN Sets b
            ON a.SID = b.SID
        INNER JOIN  Types c
            ON a.TID = c.TID
