I am trying to resolve the following query problem:
table 1 contains 2 fields containing product discriptions such as:
field 1 field 2
apples oranges
apples apples
oranges bananas
pears apples
etc.
the fields may or maynot contain the same description.
table 2
field1 field2
apples 10
pears 20
bananas 30
oranges 50
The problem is to select field 1 and 2 from table 1 and order the results by values found in table 2
I would like to do some sort of join where my select of all records from table 1 would return something liker:
apples oranges 10 50
apples apples 10 10
oranges bananas 50 30
pears apples 20 10
allowing me to order the final results to be
apples apples
pears apples
apples oranges
oranges bananas
Can someone point me in the right direction?
Thank,
Bob
