I have 2 tables. tbl_names and tbl_section which has both the id field in them. How do I go about selecting the id field,
If the format of the id's in the two table varies then you want to join them, as such you can select to use an id from one-main table, say if you have table_customes and table_orders, and tha id for orders is like "101","102"..."110", just use one for customers
select customers.id, name, amount, date from customers.orders;
