Hi

need help
My english is not good so ill be short.
This is my database


create table customers
(
customerid int unsigned not null auto_increment primary key,
name char(40) not null,
address char(40) not null,
city char(20) not null,
state char(20),
zip char(10),
country char(20) not null
);

create table orders
(
orderid int unsigned not null auto_increment primary key,
customerid int unsigned not null,
amount float(6,2),
date date not null,
order_status char(10),
ship_name char(40) not null,
ship_address char(40) not null,
ship_city char(20) not null,
ship_state char(20),
ship_zip char(10),
ship_country char(20) not null
);

create table books
(
isbn char(13) not null primary key,
author char(30),
title char(60),
catid int unsigned,
price float(4,2) not null,
description varchar(255)
);

create table categories
(
catid int unsigned not null auto_increment primary key,
catname char(40) not null
);

create table order_items
(
orderid int unsigned not null,
isbn char(13) not null,
item_price float(4,2) not null,
quantity tinyint unsigned not null,
primary key (orderid, isbn)
);

The question is how to make a query to get order list of books from specific
customer.
example: John ordered LoR1 j.r.r.tolkien 20 $ The best book ever
LoR2 j.rr Tolkirn 20$ The second best
book
Php mySql Welling 25$ The good book of
php

Please help
Thanks Ivan

Hi,

try this one here:


Select Cust.name,b.author,Cat.catname,oi.item_price,b.des cription
ON O.CUstomerId = Cust.CustomerId
INNER JOIN Order_Items oi
ON oi.OrderId = O.OrderId
INNER JOIN books b
ON b.Isbn = oi.Isbn
INNER JOIN Categories Cat
ON c.Catid = B.catid
