Can you post the code you are running?

Somewhere in this code you are using "Members.MemberID_", but your table Members (or table refereed by this alias) has no "MemberID_" column.

inner join members_ on clicktracking_.MemberID_ = Members_.MemberID_

Query you posted refers to the table with name "Members_"

Error shows "Members" - no underscore at the end.

Actually, you have a very strange naming convention...

Why do you add underscore at the end of some table and its columns names?

This will fail unless you have lyrCompletedRecips in your FROM list.

The naming convention was decided by someone else

Have you figured out the query issues, Philip?

Sorry, afraid not

thanks

I don't see it in the query, but as Eugene suggested, the error implies you had members.memberid_ in the query somewhere.

I'd double check that.

If you are still interested in working it through, there are folks here willing to help.

There are two or three remaining issues with the query;

you have a reference to a table lyrCompletedRecips, in a join, which isn't in the FROMlist

table lyrLookupCompletionStatus isn't joined to any tables in the FROMlist which will result in a cartesian product (too many rows)

the aggregate probably won't generate the result you are expecting.

Maybe I'm missing something but perhaps all this procedure needs is to make sure the table and column names are enclosed in brackets ([]) due to the odd naming convention.
