I have a table (that relates to a number of other tables) where I would like to filter ONE of the columns (RequesterID) - that column will be a combobox where only people that are not sales people should be selectable.
Here is the "unfiltered" query, lets call it QUERY 1:
SELECT RequestsID, RequesterID, ProductsID
FROM dbo.Requests
If using a separate query, lets call it QUERY 2, to filter RequesterID (which is a People related column, connected to People.PeopleID), it would look like this:
SELECT People.PeopleID
FROM People INNER JOIN
Roles ON People.RolesID = Roles.RolesID INNER JOIN
Requests ON People.PeopleID = Requests.RequesterID
WHERE (Roles.Role <> N'SalesGuy')
ORDER BY Requests.RequestsID
Now, is there a way of "merging" the QUERY 2 into QUERY 1?
(dbo.Requests in QUERY 1 has RequesterID populated as a Foreign Key from dbo.People, so no problem there... The connections are all right, just not know how to write the SQL query!)
