Phil-
OK. Try this:
SELECT Matches.*, Derbies.*
FROM Matches, Derbies
WHERE ((Matches.hometeamID = Derbies.Team1) OR (Matches.hometeamID = Derbies.Team2))
AND ((Matches.awayteamID = Derbies.Team1) OR (Matches.awayTeamID = Derbies.Team2))
That should show you all the Matches that have a Derbies record where the two teams show up. Sadly, the query won't be updatable, but you will be able to see the ratings data you want to update your matches.

Hi John
No, the field derby in the matches table is to be updated with the appropriate rating from the derbies table (ie either rating1 or rating2 depending on whether team1 or team2 from the derbies record is the home team of the matches record).

You note a field called "derby" in the Matches table. Is this the same as the ID in the Derbies table? Or, are you looking for any previous Derby that has these two teams as either Home or Away?
If you can answer my questions, I may be able to suggest a solution.

Hi
I am having trouble working out how best to create this query and I wondered if someone could give me some pointers.
I have the following tables (relevant data only)
Teams
id
team name
Matches
id
date
hometeamid (looks up team name from teams.id)
awayteam id (looks up team name from teams.id)
derby
Derbies
id
team1 (looks up team name from teams.id)
team2 (looks up team name from teams.id)
rating1 (this is a rating for this derby fixture when team1 is the home team)
rating2 (this is a rating for this derby fixture when team2 is the home team)
when a match record has been created (by bulk external import) I want to be able to update the record if applicable with the correct derby rating.
A match has a home team and an away team and I want to find (if it exists) the derby record for this match and then pick up the appropriate rating figure depending on which team is at home.
So from the match record I need to establish if there is a derby record for the 2 teams involved and then apply a rating depending on whether hometeam id = team1 or team2
I suspect I will need at least one level of 'prequery' but as I say I can't get my head around it at the moment
Help please!!
Phil
