      From: castorrr-removeME-@fastwebnet.it              hi all,              i have two tables              BOOK       ------------------------------------       CODE NOT NULL NUMBER       TITLE VARCHAR2(45)       YEAR NUMBER                     AUTHOR       ------------------------------------       A_NAME NOT NULL VARCHAR2(15)       DESCRIPTION VARCHAR2(40)              i had an n->n relation with title/a_name, so i created a mid entity:              BOOK_AUTHOR       ------------       TITLE       A_NAME              After that i created the following view              create view ALL as       (select Code, BOOK.Title, AUTHOR.A_Name        from BOOK, BOOK_AUTHOR, AUTHOR        where (BOOK.Title=BOOK_AUTHOR.Title AND        BOOK_AUTHOR.A_Name=AUTHOR.A_Name);              So, where's my problem? When a book is written by multiple authors. when       i select the view, multiple authors are put in multiple lines. Is there       any way out?              thx for help, cas              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
