I saw your reply to selecting from multiple tables.. but how do I create the results page with the search results?

I have 4 tables that I want to search from with one or multiple keywords:
News (in the news links)
PR (Press releases)
Trade Shows (listing of trade shows)
Website (articles on the web site itself)

If I include a column in each of the databases called "keywords"
I could do a select statement to search all tables..
but how do I display the results of such a select statement in the search results page?

If the record came from News
I want to display the title, date, and link to the news.

If the record came from PR I want to display, title, date, and link to detail page that will display the PR body and other detail columns

If the record came tradeshows I want to display all the records within that tradeshow record..

And finally if it came from the website, I want to display a brief abstract of that article and link to its URL on the website.

I would think this is possible, but its seems to complicated for my blood..

Could you help???

PS. I'm using ASP with SQL 2000 Server"
