I have a row that has 5 seperate columns with Empolyee IDs in each(some) of them. But in a statment I want to do a join with the Employee table to get the name of the employee.

Now I know obviously, how to join atleast for one, but I cannot figure out how to do the others in the same row.

Here is what I have so far


SELECT Mark,
	Employee.Employee_Name AS TDK_Employee, Processed_TDK, Processed_TDK_EmployeeID, Processed_TDK_DateTime,
	Processed_BDL, Processed_BDL_EmployeeID, Processed_BDL_DateTime,
	Processed_ABC, Processed_ABC_EmployeeID, Processed_ABC_DateTime,
	Processed_APS, Processed_APS_EmployeeID, Processed_APS_DateTime,
	Processed_FDB, Processed_FDB_EmployeeID, Processed_FDB_DateTime
FROM SteelRecords
		LEFT OUTER JOIN Employee ON Processed_TDK_EmployeeID = Employee.ID
WHERE (GroupID = '931')

Suggestions? :) thanks

SELECT Mark,
EmployeeTDK.Employee_Name AS TDK_Employee, Processed_TDK, Processed_TDK_EmployeeID, Processed_TDK_DateTime,
EmployeeBDL.Employee_Name AS BDL_Employee, Processed_BDL, Processed_BDL_EmployeeID, Processed_BDL_DateTime,
...
FROM SteelRecords
LEFT OUTER JOIN Employee EmployeeTDK ON Processed_TDK_EmployeeID = EmployeeTDK.ID
LEFT OUTER JOIN Employee EmployeeBDL ON Processed_BDL_EmployeeID = EmployeeBDL.ID
.....
WHERE (GroupID = '931')

==========================================
Cursors are useful if you don't know sql.
DTS can be used in a similar way.
