Sum column values from two MySQL tables

Hello,
1. This is the syntax that you can use to sum numeric values from a column into a mysql table:

Code: Select all

SELECT SUM(col_name) AS snr FROM table_name WHERE some_condition
2. If you want to do multiple SUM(), in multiple tables, and output them in a single SELECT statement with each SUM being a column; you can use a SQL query like this:

Code: Select all

SELECT
(SELECT SUM(col_name1) FROM table_name1) AS snr1,
(SELECT SUM(col_name2) FROM table_name2) AS snr2
FROM table_name1 LIMIT 1
In the rest, i didn't understand what result (count number) you want to get from those tables.
Better post a few rows with data from mysql tables, Not the table structure; and what result you want to be returned.
