    Please give me some idea on the following senario,

    There are 3 tables

    1)table-- BOOKS

    columns --title, isbn

    ex: the book, 1234

    2)table--bookauthor

    columns --isbn, auth_id

    ex: 1234, pra

    1234,vin

    3) table--authors

    columns---auth_id, auth_name

    pra , prakash

    vin , vinder

    Now i need to find out pair of authors work together more than 2 times

    Thanks in advance

    Never stop learning, even if it hurts. Ego bruises are practically mandatory as you learn unless you've never risked enough to make a mistake.

    Umm, agree with you I must.

  • Can you please show what you've tried that hasn't worked. We're more than willing to help. But, we're not doing your homework for you.
