Hi

I'm maintaining a Movie release list on my site, and wanted to include books on the list. The problem is that the information is located in different tables. I'm using ADO connection, and want to know how i can Order the information by Release Date together, and then write it on my website.

use the union clause

select moviename, releasedate from movie
UNION
select bookname, releasedate from books
order by release

to UNION 2 or more queries they need to return the smae number of columns (2 in the example above). The columns will take the names of the columns from the first query (moviename & releasedate from the example above)
