I have three tables dealing with books: Authors
, Titles
of books written and a bridge table TitleAuthor
, from from which I am trying to find all books (Titles
) with more than one author. These are the tables:
Authors (Au_Id PK, Au_fname, Au_lname, ...)
Titles (Title_Id PK, Title, Title_type, ...)
TitleAuthor (Au_Id PK, Title_Id PK, Au_order, ...)
In TitleAuthor
, I am not sure of what Au_order
means, but I suspect it is the order in which an author's name is cited in a book with more than one author. Au_order
is a TinyInt
data type, btw. These queries are supposed to be introductory, i.e. no fancy joins or subqueries.
This is what I have tried:
1)
Select Au_Id from `TitleAuthor` where Count(Auth_id)>1;
But this gives us the author name, not the book name (remember: intro query)
2) Figuring out which books/titles are mentioned more than once in TitleAuthor
:
Select Title_id from Title-Author where Count(Title_Id)>1;
This gives me no results for some reason, though no error messages either. I suspect I may need grouping and having, but this is not working either.
Any Ideas?
