    book/site recommendations for learning about doing complex queries in MySQL

    Please recommend books or web sites to learn more about how to do complex
    queries using MySQL. A potential client needs lots of summarizations and
    sub-queries.

    Many thanks.

      While I cannot offer recommendation on any books, let me suggest the
      following.

      From what you are saying, the client may be looking ad-hoc querying
      and flexible reporting. If so, may want to look at OLAP (online
      analytical processing), and tools like Business Object. Somehow your
      client may never be satisfied with static reports that can be produced
      with a combo of php & mysql.
