I'm having troube doing a left outer self join on a table. The sent
column shows the number of items sent to each recipient from each
source. The received column (generated by the outer join) is incorrect
because although it is summing the number of messages by recipient,
these need to be filtered by source too.
How can I do a join on two columns in the master table?
Thanks for any help.
Rory
