Do it like this: SELECT ALGORITMO.nome, ALGORITMO.id_proj, ATAS.arquivo FROM ALGORITMO, ATAS WHERE ALGORITMO.id_proj=0 AND ALGORITMO.eng=1 OR ALGORITMO.nome="teste" OR ATAS.nome="de" OR ATAS.nome="parse"; Obviously, I have no idea how you want your query to look, so be sure to customize it for your needs, but this demonstrates what you need to do: Explicitly state the table whose column you want to access.
