That can be done as a view with indexes on each of the tables to support it for performance. I don't really like views that join multiple tables because it creates a dependency that make it difficult to do things like deleting one of the files. If that is a concern, I've built table functions to encapsulate the joins but to not create the dependencies.

I simply wanted to create an Index over a table, and add a Join to another table. I wanted to know if anyone has done this before.
