This is the a limitation stemming from the CakePHP web development framework. In this case, it would assign those two fields to an unnamed table/bucket, but for columns stemming from the from clause, it splits them into buckets based on the table alias name. I can alias the table names, but it means rewriting all the custom queries in the app, or the resulting processing code which has been relying on the bucketizing. Which is what I will do. Just another small speedbump moving my app away from MySQL. Scott
