Subject Syntax for Union
Author Steve Harp
Hi All,

I need some help with unions.

select Field1, Field2 from table1
union
select Field1, Field2 from table2

This works fine but I need to use the order by and where clauses on the
first table. Something I read suggested this.

(select t1.Field1, t1.Field2 AS Name from table1 t1
union
select t2.Field1, t2.Field2 AS Name from table2 t2)
where t1.Field3 = 'T'
order by Name

But this barfs on the initial '('. Can someone give me an example of a
union which can have where and order by clauses for the unioned tables?

Thanks,
Steve
