Hi everyone,

Oracle is new to me, but I was very disappointed that the following query doesn't work!

Select Name, (Select Name from Table2 where Table2.Table2ID=Table1.Table2ID) from Table1;

I am aware of the fact that tis simple query can be solved with joins but that means that I have to change code which works fine on Informix, SQL Server and Access. Beside that it is also possible to use aggregate functions in this manner.

Hopefully I missed something and is this possible after all!

Any help is highly appriciated!!
