New to sql and may be a simple question for you:
I have four tables
sample: sid, sname
make: sid, mdate
measure: sid, mdate, rid
result: rid, resultdata
for a gaven sample it always has a sid and sname, but
it may or may not have any entries in the other
tables, the sample could be measured more than once
and each measure give a result row.
question:
how do I do a query that given a sid, it will retrieve
all the information available in the four tables, if
there are available. If, for example, all tables have
some entry for a gave sample it will retreve all the
information, if the "measure" and "result" are empty
for that sample it will give only the 'sample' and
'make' information....
please help
Thanks
