Good evening, I am working on a query at my office that is joining multiple tables in order to display a User notification (similar to facebook). The notifications are based on user department, access level, and position. I want to display all of the announcements filtered for the user that is in the CWAnnouncement table and the NotificationArchive Table where the NotificationArchive.Active is equal to 1 or if they have not made an entry in the NotificationArchive table. If NotificationArchive.Active is equal to 0 then I do not want it to show up in the query results. So far the user filter works but I am having trouble display the results based on who the user is and whether or not they have an announcement in the NotificationArchive table. I hope this make sense. Help would be greatly appreciated this will be my first major project for this company and I want to do a good job for them. Thanks,
