Hi

I'm trying to create a cursor from three tables

LINEMARKINGHEAD (parent)
CUSTOMERS (child) ICUSTNO
SITES (child) CODE

I want to extract all records from LINEMARKINGHEAD, but have the cursor contain the customer name and sitename. The line below works fine:-
SELECT linemarkinghead.icustno,customers.ccompany FROM linemarkinghead,customers WHERE linemarkinghead.icustno=customers.icustno INTO CURSOR  listtmp
but when I try to add the site I get far too many records:
SELECT linemarkinghead.icustno,customers.ccompany,sites.name FROM linemarkinghead,customers,sites WHERE ;
linemarkinghead.icustno=customers.icustno AND linemarkinghead.siteno=sites.code INTO CURSOR  tmp
Can you not have two children in a SELECT SQL statement?
