Hi,
I have a dtabase with two tables in it.
AUTH

username

password

limit

grp1

grp2

grp3

grp4

grp5

grp6

grp7
ORDERFORM

chargeto

auth

This table has other fields but they are not important to the question
The query i am using at the moment is

SELECT `username`, `username` FROM `auth`  " . " where " . "`limit` >= " . $_SESSION["total"] . " ORDER BY `username`"


This looks that the limit field on the AUTH table and only displays the usernames that have a limit high enough to sign.
The chargeto field is a dropdown list that shows a list of departments.
The grp fileds are going to be used for showing which department the user is in.
My question is this:
Can i change the query to look what is in the chargeto field and only display the users that have that department in one of thier 7 grp fields. It must keep its limit bit as well.
Any help will be appreciated
Adam
