Joining tables in two dbs

[eluser]Eric Brown[/eluser]
Right. It is = false because both databases are on the same server, and the persistent connection stays open with number 1 when called alone when i then initiate number two.

So the problem I have is not connecting to two different databases serially, but connecting to them in one query where I am joining tables. I could hardcode the database names in the query, but that doesn't allow me to update the names easily should I move hosts.

Thanks.
