Need Help with Join

  • Hello SQL Masters,

    I need help with the joins.I have 2 tables that contains data below.

    Product Table-

    Product_id Product_name Projects Month

    --------------------------------

    10001 Prd1 Project1 2010-11

    10001 Prd1 Project2 2010-11

    10001 Prd1 Project3 2010-10

    10002 Prd2 Project4 2010-11

    10002 Prd2 Project5 2010-11

    Product Budget-

    Product_Name Product Budget Month

    ---------------------------------------

    10001 100 2010-11

    10001 500 2010-10

    10002 200 2010-10

    I want to join these table and get the Produt budget with projects each month and If I use inner join then it is actually aggregating the product budget and getting the product budget as 200 instead of 100 as the first table is having 2 records .Please help me in getting the result as shown below.

    Product_id Product_budget Month

    -------------------------------------

    Prd1 100 2010-11

    Prd1 500 2010-10

  • select distinct T1.Product_name, Product_budget, T1.Month

    from [Product Table] as T1

    inner join [Product Budget] as T2

    on T1.Product_ID = T2.Product_name

    and T1.Month = T2.Month

    where T1.Product_ID = 10001;

    Looks like that should do it. Your question is less than clear (why, for example, is the data denormalized that way, and why leave Product_ID 10002 out of the results?). Also, I can't tell if this will work or not since you haven't provided table structures. Also, why is 10001 the Product_ID in one table and the Product_name in the other table, where Product_name is something else entirely in the other table?
