Join multiple columns into one and getting upcoming expiration dates

Question

So I have an table that looks like this

+--------------+------------+------------+------------+
| licxp1       | licxp2     | licxp3     | licxp4     |
+--------------+------------+------------+------------+
| 2014-12-18   | 2014-10-29 | 2014-12-11 | 2014-12-01 |
| 2014-12-29   | 2014-10-22 | 2014-12-18 | 2014-12-15 |
| 2014-12-18   | 2014-11-18 | 2014-12-17 | 2014-12-12 |
| 2014-12-27   | 2014-12-19 | 2014-12-18 | 2014-12-07 |
| 2014-12-18   | 2014-12-18 | 2014-12-19 | 2014-12-05 |
| 2014-12-23   | 2014-12-18 | 2014-12-18 | 2014-12-16 |
| 2014-12-18   | 2014-12-18 | 2014-12-18 | 2014-12-18 |
+--------------+------------+------------+------------+

And I need it to look like this while getting the First name from another table.

+---------------+--------------+
| Name          | Expring lics |
+---------------+--------------+
| John Doe      | 2014-10-29   |
| Johnny Cash   | 2014-10-22   |
| Bruice Willis | 2014-11-18   |
| Led Zeplin    | 2014-12-19   |
| Def leapord   | 2014-12-18   |
| Iron Madden   | 2014-12-18   |
| etc.          | 2014-12-18   |
+---------------+--------------+

The Expring lics field gets all the upcoming expiration that are 15 days from today from the license table.

Also I need it to repeat for example if there are 2 licenses for John Doe I need it to display like this:

+---------------+------------+
| John Doe      | 2014-10-10 |
| John Doe      | 2014-10-21 |
| John Doe      | 2014-10-27 |
| John Doe      | 2014-10-20 |
| John Doe      | 2014-10-22 |
| Johnny Cash   | 2014-10-21 |
| Bruice Willis | 2014-11-18 |
| Led Zeplin    | 2014-12-19 |
| Def leapord   | 2014-12-18 |
| Iron Madden   | 2014-12-18 |
| etc.          | 2014-12-18 |
+---------------+------------+

 ORDER BY

Answer 1

use joins

syntax:

SELECT table1.column1, table2.column2...
FROM table1
INNER JOIN table2
ON table1.common_field = table2.common_field;


SELECT users.unm,licenses.licxp1 FROM licenses INNER JOIN users ON licenses.uid = users.uid 
where licenses.licxp1 <= DATE_ADD(DATE(now()), INTERVAL 5 DAY);
