Hi Guys,
Currently I have a database with around 30 tables (for 30 different products) and there is no relationships between any of them just flat tables.
There are testing results stored in each table and I have built a search function to grab the info I want. For example a weeks worth of data inserted.
Currently I have it set up that I have to chose the table I want to search from. The data is then outputted into a table with the table heading hard coded and not being lifted from the database.
Was wondering is there anyway that I could search from all tables in the database and return the info instead of only searching one at a time without any relationships between the tables ??
The main issue I can see is that each table of search results will have to have different table headings and not just plonked into one table and one set of headings![Frown :( :(](/styles/default/xenforo/vbSmilies/Normal/frown.gif)
Any ideas welcome![Smile :) :)](/styles/default/xenforo/vbSmilies/Normal/smile.gif)
Cheers
