Your query doesn't show any relationship between the two tables (via a join condition or correlation) so you would have to do two queries (which is exactly what your original query does anyway: SELECT COUNT(field2):[EMAIL PROTECTED] FROM table2 WHERE id = 10; SELECT table1.*, @counter as total FROM table1 LIMIT 1; Note that I took out the GROUP BY clause, which is pointless given the query's structure of returning the first id column.
