Re: Need a VIEW without SUB-SELECT

CREATE VIEW status_schmetus AS SELECT approval.status_name AS aproval_status_name, acknowledgement.status_name AS acknowledgement_status_name FROM po_status JOIN status AS approval ON(po_status.approval_status_id = status.status_id) JOIN status AS acknowledgement ON(po_status.acknowledgement_status_id = status.status_id);

Should do it i think, but I did not test it.
