I have a site with 4 diffrent catagories. Each catagory should be browsed and searched. There for i created 4 tables with identical fields. for time consuming on user search, rather have it on 4 tables then 1 big bloatable table that can hold many items. for each catagory there is a field of number times it was viewed. i want to know which SQL command i can do to those 4 tables with identical fields name to know which is the top 10 viewed from all of them. 2nd thing i like is to do a LIKE command to them all in a description field i have in all 4 table for wildcard search. thank you!
