Unless I'm missing a step. Actually I would be happy if that were the case, as I have one situation where it would be very helpful to show data from the foreign table. Insert an owner in this table: db.define_table('owners', Field('name', length=32), format = '%(name)s', ) Insert two dogs in this table. Point owner_id to the owner inserted above. db.define_table('dogs', Field('owner_id', 'reference owners'), Field('name', length=32), format = '%(name)s', ) This grid will show two rows, reflecting the left join, but it won't show either dog's name or id. def index(): columns = ('owners.name <http://owners.name>', 'dogs.id <http://dogs.id>', 'dogs.name <http://dogs.name>') query = db.owners.id <http://db.owners.id> > 0 form = SQLFORM.grid( query, left = db.dogs.on( db.dogs.owner_id == db.owners.id <http://db.owners.id> ), columns=columns ) return dict(form=form On Dec 14, 11:14 am, Massimo Di Pierro <[email protected] <javascript:;>> wrote: > Can you provide an example of grid usage that ignores left joins? > > On Dec 14, 8:00 am, Johann Spies <[email protected] <javascript:;>> wrote: > > > > > > > > > On 14 December 2011 14:07, Cliff <[email protected] <javascript:;>> wrote: > > > > > It is not possible with that query.
