Thanks - I like the temporary table idea, but now sure how it would work. say for instance I have two tables
create tab1 (id int, name text) 1, 'paul' 2, 'helen' 3, 'melanie' create tab2 (id int, country text) 1, 'uk' 2, 'scotland' I can create a temporary table create table tab3 as select * from tab1, tab2 and I get values 1|paul|1|uk 1|paul|2|scotland 2|helen|1|uk 2|helen|2|scotland 3|melanie|1|uk 3|melanie|2|scotland what I want is 1|1|paul|1|uk 2|1|paul|2|scotland 3|2|helen|1|uk 4|2|helen|2|scotland 5|3|melanie|1|uk 6|3|melanie|2|scotland How do I get that extra column?
