Re: SELECT FROM 2 or more tables

[Brent Baisley <brent@landover.com>]

A join merges every record in one table with every record in another 
table, which is something you rarely want to do. So you want to set a 
filter on the merged records, which can be anything, but is usually a 
match between a field in one table and a field in another table.

That's a join in two sentences or less.
