    <p>I have three tables. SurveyFact, Question, and Responses. The survey fact contains the data for surveys taken by clients while the Question and Responses table has the obvious data, a list of questions and possible responses per Question.</p> <p>SurveyFact:</p> <pre><code>| SurveyFactID | ClientID | QuestionID | ResponseCode | ------------------------------------------------------------ | 1 | 1 | 1 | 3 | | 2 | 1 | 2 | 3 | | 3 | 1 | 3 | 1 | </code></pre> <p>Question:</p> <pre><code>| QuestionID| QuestionText | ------------------------------------- | 1 | blah blah blah | | 2 | blah blah blah | | 3 | blah blah blah | </code></pre> <p>Response:</p> <pre><code>| ResponseID| QuestionID | ResponseCode |ResponseText | -----------------------------------------------------------| | 1 | 1 | 1 | like | | 2 | 1 | 2 | don't care | | 3 | 1 | 3 | hate | | 4 | 2 | 1 | like | | 5 | 2 | 2 | don't care | | 6 | 2 | 3 | hate | </code></pre> <p>Here is the query I've come up with. (That fails)</p> <pre><code>select sf.QuestionCode as [Question Number], q.QuestionText as [Question Text], r.ResponseText as [Reponse] from SurveyFact sf inner join Question q on q.QuestionID = sf.QuestionID inner join Responses r on r.ResponseCode = sf.ResponseCode where sf.ClientID = '1' and sf.QuestionID = q.QuestionID and sf.ResponseCode = r.ResponseCode </code></pre> <p>Even when I use select distinct it yields me the survey and questions with every possible answer instead just the the question/answer combo listed in SurveyFact. </p> <p>Help please?</p> <p>Requested Table: What I'm Seeing</p> <pre><code>| Question Number | Question Text |Response Text | ------------------------------------------------------ | 1 | blah blah blah | like | | 1 | blah blah blah | don't care | | 1 | blah blah blah | hate | | 2 | blah blah blah | like | | 2 | blah blah blah | don't care | | 2 | blah blah blah | hate | </code></pre> <p>What I want:</p> <pre><code>| Question Number | Question Text |Response Text | ------------------------------------------------------ | 1 | blah blah blah | don't care | | 2 | blah blah blah | like | </code></pre> <p>First one is Number, QUestion, Then every possible answer. Second is just Number,Question, just chosen answer</p>

    1. COcould you please describe what you actually expect as a result? Make a table of the select-query, it is easier to help you then.

    2. CO`on q.QuestionID = sf.QuestionID` you have no field QuestionID in SurveyFact table, so this query sould raise an error... typo or something missing ?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
