Hi
I have two queries in SQL linked to excel.
Report 1 shows
Contract A E N P
Income 5000 6000 8000 4000
Costs 4000 7000 6000 3000
Report2 shows
Contract A B E
CustomerA 500 200 400
CustomerB 450 100 200
Is it possible to combine them so I get
Contract A B E N P
Income 5000 6000 8000 4000
Costs 4000 7000 6000 3000
CustomerA 500 200 400
CustomerB 450 100 200
Thanks

Can you try using a UNION like shown below:SELECT contract, A, NULL AS B, E, N, P FROM Report1Table
UNION ALL
SELECT contract, A, B, E, NULL, NULL FROM Report2Table If you have specific ordering needs that would need to be added in. |

Hi
Thanks for the reply, however to do that wouldn't I need to know all the data (of which in reality there is lots) |

You need to know only about columns involved not on actual data. also all tables should have equal number of columns with corresponding types equal.

SELECT Contract,A,Null AS 'B',E,N,P FROM ReportTable1
UNION all
SELECT Contract,A,B,E,Null AS 'N',Null AS 'P' FROM ReportTable2
