Hi everybody,

My colleague is asking help with Access query. He has Visits table and Doctors table. We need to find information about patients, that have more than one visits with their doctors and doctor's specialty.

This part works
SELECT VISITS.patient_name, VISITS.visit_date
FROM VISITS GROUP BY VISITS.patient_name, VISITS.visit_date
HAVING count(VISITS.visit_date)>1;
Now we need to join with the doctors table

INNER JOIN DOCTORS ON VISITS.doctor_name = DOCTORS.doctor_name

In VFP I would write something like

select * from Visits inner join Doctors where patient_name + dtos(date) in (select patient_name + dtos(date) from ... having ...)

The problem is that I don't remember the Access function that converts date to string and could not find it in Access help.

Could you bright minds help me with this SQL and save me from the total embarrassment?

Thanks a lot in advance.
If it's not broken, fix it until it is.
