    Hi All,

    Lets say i have a 2 tables
    Table1
    ID(int)
    Name(varchar)

    Table2
    ID2(int)
    ID = ID2

    So on a page if i have ID2 on table 2, i would like to display Name on table1, how would i go about doing this?
    Sorry if it is a bit confusing but let me know if you are confused.

    If you have ID2 in a variable all you need is a WHERE sql lookup...

    There's a million examples out there, best that you read a bit more about it rather than just get the answer given to you.
