Question

I have the following scenario:

Articles Table

id | description | supplierID
_____________________________
1  | Testarticle | 1

Supplier Table

id | description 
_______________________
1  | Example Industries

When reading out an article, for example
SELECT * FROM articles WHERE ID=1, i also need the supplier description in my result.

What would be an appropriate way to achieve this?

Answer 1

select a.id as ArticleID, a.description as ArticleDescription, a.SupplierID,
s.description as SupplierDescription
from articles a
inner join supplier s on a.supplierID = s.supplierID
where a.id = 1
