Hi all,
I have a problem with MS Query in Excel.
I have multiple select statements which MS Query can't interpret.
I'm doing a query to Informix database, and if I have only one select
statement, everything works ok, but if I try to retreive the data from 2 or
3 databases I have to use several select statements, and MS Query can't do
that.
I'm getting an error "Didn't expect ";" after the column list in the ORDER
BY clause"
SQL statement on the database server works fine.

Can anyone help me with this ?

Thanks !

If all queries return the same number of columns, join then with UNION ALL

SELECT a,b,c from d
UNION ALL
SELECT a,b,c from e
UNION ALL
SELECT a,b,c from f
