Ashokan,
As far as i know a dynamic table name specification is not possible for inner joins.

Humm... try to approach it through a macro, maybe it works... You will not be able to
debug it but debug an SQL sentence is useless.
Something like
Code:
DEFINE myJoin.
SELECT *
FROM &1 INNER JOIN mytab
ON &1~field = mytabl~field.
END-OF-DEFINITION.

As any of my codes, it's not checked, and will not be checked (almost by me).

I'm happy to be helpful. Now a hint and a petition:


The hint
Be careful declaring variables in a macro. If you call the macro more than once, the
system will check your macro code at compiling and you will get a duplicate definition
error.
The petition
If you think your problem is solved (more or less), edit the subject of your topic. People
with a problem like yours will find easyly a solution using the search if they see a
"solved" topic. Thanks in advance.
Best luck,
Vic
