Here is my situation, I need to join the following two queries:

TABLE RELATIONS:
PT_SOLUTION-----1 to Many----a.PT_SOLUTION_EVENT PT_SOLUTION-----1 to Many----a.PT_INCIDENTLINK

PROBLEM:
When I attempt to join all three tables the result set is x amout of time that I need for example:

RESULTS:
Query 1returns 8 rows
Query2 returns 6 rows
I attempt to join the result is 48.

I believe using intersect is the best way to resolve this but I am having problems and am afraid I may be going down the wrong path.

Thank you
Lance

Query 1
SELECT
  a.pc_solution_id, b.pc_session_user_name FROM
  pt_solution a,
  pt_solution_event b
WHERE
  a.pc_secure_id = b.pc_sol_secure_id and   a.pc_solution_id = 'sk4968';

RESULT: sk4968 tchung
sk4968 tchung
sk4968 dtrevino
sk4968 oreiter
sk4968 oreiter
sk4968 oreiter
sk4968 dkotha
sk4968 kwinfield

Query 2
SELECT
  a.pc_solution_id, b.pc_incident_id
FROM
  pt_solution a,
  pt_incidentlink b
WHERE
  a.pc_solution_uuid = b.pc_solution_uuid and   a.pc_solution_id = 'sk4968';

RESULT:

sk4968          1-283108680
sk4968          83362
sk4968          93765
