Re: Ambiguous error message

Hi Sam,

I'm not quite sure what you want the query to return, but you've got a
problem with your parentheses. You've got two FROM clauses and an INNER
JOIN, which together aren't arranged properly. I've rearranged your
query a little, but I haven't changed anything. Perhaps this'll make it
a little clearer to you.

If you explain a little more what your query is trying to return, I
might be able to help more.
