Question

I have two tables that have the exact same fields and I want to join them based on a dummy field I added to them both called join2 = 1.

However when I use the below syntax, it puts it all on one line, where as I want them on seperate lines based on the name field

The syntax I used is:

select a.NAME, a.COUNT1, a.MIN1,a.MAX1,a.SUM1,a.AVG1,
b.NAME, b.COUNT1, b.MIN1,b.MAX1,b.SUM1,b.AVG1
from #AMT_PAYMENTS a 
INNER join #cur_bal b on (a.join2 = b.join2)

so the table looks like

name count1 min1 max1 sum1 avg1 name count1 min1 max1 sum1 avg1 

instead of just

name count1 min1 max1 sum1 avg1

with the names listed separately vertically

You want to use a UNION statement:

select a.NAME, a.COUNT1, a.MIN1,a.MAX1,a.SUM1,a.AVG1
FROM #AMT_PAYMENTS a
UNION
select b.NAME, b.COUNT1, b.MIN1,b.MAX1,b.SUM1,b.AVG1
FROM #cur_bal b
