Assuming you have table staff with an id and name,
and title with id and title,
You create a join table.
Staff_id Title_id
1 1
1 2
2 1
2 3

Select name,title
FROM staff s , title t, jointable j
WHERE s.id=j.staff_id AND j.title_id=t.id;

Hi,
Thanks for all the advice, one question, the create a JOIN table, you
mean just create a table, is the naming convention for join tables
something like:-
join_jobTitles
In other words prefix all join tables with join_?
