multiple-tables

I would like to know how to deal with only ONE authentification process and "users" in multiple tables.

START TRANSACTION; INSERT INTO table1 VALUES ('1','2','3'); INSERT INTO table2 VALUES ('bob','smith');

I am trying to perform a Join between multiple tables in LINQ. I have the following classes: Product {Id, ProdName, ProdQty} Category {Id, CatName} ProductCategory{ProdId, CatId} //association table And I use the following code (where product , category and productcategory are instances of the above classes): var query = product.Join(productcategory, p => p.Id, pc => pc.ProdID, (p, pc) => new {product = p, productcategory = pc}) .Join(category, ppc => ppc.productcategory.CatId, c => c.Id, (ppc, c) => new { productproductcategory = ppc, category = c}); With this code I obtain an object from the
