I don't have time to search anymore. I can not find the proper keyword.

I need help with a JOIN or a WHERE expression.

TABLE1 contains CASE_NUMBER
TABLE2 contains DEPT,YEAR,NUMBER

CASE_NUMBER is DEPTyearNUMBER

How do I format a JOIN or WHERE statement to use this info?

Hi,

CODE

select TABLE1.*, TABLE2.*
From TABLE1, TABLE2
Where CASE_NUMBER = 'DEPT||YEAR||NUMBER'
or whatever concatenation operator your version of SQL recognizes.

Skip,

I'm using DB2 and did not have enough luck with this as I'd hoped. It looks like the fields in TABLE2 are just not meant to be joined like this. I have found a work around that gets me where I need to go.

Thanks for your help, maybe I'll get to use this in the future.
