Hello,
I'm not sure if this is even possible, but I'll throw it by you anyway.
Say I have 2 tables:
Table1: With columns number and name
1.1 test1
1.2 test2
1.3 test3
1.4 test4
Table2: With column number and results
1.1 pass
1.2 fail
1.3 pass
1.4 fail
What I would like to do is add a new column to Table2 called name and populate the name from table 1 and add it to table 2. So, table 2 will look like:
1.1 pass test1
1.2 fail test2
1.3 pass test3
1.4 fail test4
**NOTE: in same cases if you do a "select name from table1 where number='1.1'" you might get multiple matches, I guess we would need to use "distinct" ?
I've never interacted two tables before, so I'm not even sure where to start with this.
I'm using postgres 7.4.
Thanks all.
