I've never joined more than three files myself, but I believe I see a
problem.

The specification of a file before the second and third "left outer join"
clauses should probably be omitted.  When I join more than one file, I have
never specified a file name before the other "join" clauses.  I believe, and
I could be wrong, that the joins are assumed to relate either to the primary
file (login in this case) or to the result set from the previous join
clauses.

Hope that helps.
