get column from too many tables in mysql
If all the tables use the MyISAM Storage Engine and have the same table structure, I have some good news for you.

You can create a single table that consumes no additional space except a .frm file and some mapping info. The key is to take advantage of the MERGE (MRG_MyISAM) Storage Engine.

Here is how you can do this:

CREATE TABLE XMerge LIKE X1;
ALTER TABLE XMerge ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM
UNION=(X1,X2,X3,X4) INSERT_METHOD=LAST;


Using this method, you can query the 4 tables at the same time like this:

SELECT ReqF FROM XMerge WHERE EmpName='John';


Was that simple, or what ???

In your case, you have 75 tables. You would do this:

CREATE TABLE XMerge LIKE X1;
ALTER TABLE XMerge ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM
UNION=(X1,X2,X3,X4,X5,X6,X7,X8,X9,
X10,X11,X12,X13,X14,X15,X16,X17,X18,X19,
X20,X21,X22,X23,X24,X25,X26,X27,X28,X29,
X30,X31,X32,X33,X34,X35,X36,X37,X38,X39,
X40,X41,X42,X43,X44,X45,X46,X47,X48,X49,
X50,X51,X52,X53,X54,X55,X56,X57,X58,X59,
X60,X61,X62,X63,X64,X65,X66,X67,X68,X69,
X70,X71,X72,X73,X74,X75) INSERT_METHOD=LAST;
SELECT ReqF FROM XMerge WHERE EmpName='John';


The beauty of this is that creating a MERGE table takes milliseconds. Just make sure every table has an index on EmpName. Better to do 75 indexed lookups that 75 full table scans. If there is no index on EmpName, you need to do this:

ALTER TABLE X1 ADD UNIQUE KEY (EmpName);
ALTER TABLE X2 ADD UNIQUE KEY (EmpName);
.
.
.
ALTER TABLE X75 ADD UNIQUE KEY (EmpName);
CREATE TABLE XMerge LIKE X1;
ALTER TABLE XMerge ENGINE=MRG_MYISAM
UNION=(X1,X2,X3,X4,X5,X6,X7,X8,X9,
X10,X11,X12,X13,X14,X15,X16,X17,X18,X19,
X20,X21,X22,X23,X24,X25,X26,X27,X28,X29,
X30,X31,X32,X33,X34,X35,X36,X37,X38,X39,
X40,X41,X42,X43,X44,X45,X46,X47,X48,X49,
X50,X51,X52,X53,X54,X55,X56,X57,X58,X59,
X60,X61,X62,X63,X64,X65,X66,X67,X68,X69,
X70,X71,X72,X73,X74,X75) INSERT_METHOD=LAST;
SELECT ReqF FROM XMerge WHERE EmpName='John';


Give it a Try !!!
