Re: View with an outer join - is there any way to optimise

[John McCawley <nospam@xxxxxxxxxxxx>]

You should be able to use my trick...the join that is giving you the 
problem is:

SELECT *
 FROM
     tokens.ta_tokenhist h INNER JOIN
     tokens.vw_tokens    t ON h.token_id = t.token_id
 WHERE
     h.sarreport_id = 9 ;


ta_tokenhist is already part of your view, right?  So you should be able 
to include the sarreport_id as part of your view, and then restructure 
your query as:


SELECT *
 FROM
     tokens.ta_tokenhist INNER JOIN
     tokens.vw_tokens ON tokens.ta_tokenhist.token_id = 
tokens.vw_tokens.token_id
 WHERE
     tokens.vw_tokens.sarreport_id = 9 ;

I removed the aliases because they confuse me ;)
