Hello,
I need to query two different tables and create one "BIG" array.
I can query both tables, but can't find a way to combine the results in one array.
The problem comes in with the second table. It has a weird layout.
The second table only has four fields. They are: contact_id, contact_owner, contact_name, and contact_value
a.. The 'contact_id' needs to be linked to 'id' field from the first table.
b.. The contact_name is a field I need to use to reference what i'm looking for.
example... contact_name HAS values of RANO, PrevSys, Supplier, Dynamic
each of them has the same contact_id different contact_names with different contact_values
To query the second table I do something like this:
SELECT contact_value FROM egw_addressbook_extra WHERE contact_name='Supplier' and contact_id=' XXX'
The xxx is the ID from the first table.
-----------------------------------------
Table 1:
ID NAME BUSINESS ADDRESS CITY PHONE
1 John Smith Smith's Phone Co. 100 Main St Someplace 555-5555
2 Joe Brown Brown's Shoe Store 105 Grant St. This City 555-0001
Table 2:
CONTACT_ID CONTACT_NAME CONTACT_VALUE CONTACT_OWNER
1 PrevSys NONE 4
1 RANO 100102 4
1 Supplier TrueValue 4
1 Dynamic 192.168.0.0 4
2 PrevSys OLD POS SYS 4
2 RANO 100105 4
2 Supplier Orgill 4
2 Dynamic 192.168.100.0 4
I want to query both tables and create a array. The extra fields from table two need to have their own field in the array.
I need to call those extra fields in the array by the contact_name field...
example.... $myrow[supplier] $myrow[PrepSys] $myrow[name]
I have tried alot of stuff to get this done, but i think i was very off task.
Some help/guide is needed.... I'm new!!!!
Thanks...
Matt
