Question

I need to display some details on DetailsView from two tables.

I have table: orders [orderId , userId_relat]
and table: users [userId , userName]

i have the next SQLDataSource SELECT command:

    SelectCommand="SELECT [orderId], [userId_relat],  
FROM [orders] WHERE ([userId_relat] = @userId) >

i want to show the outpot:

orderId ………. userName

Instead of:

orderId …. userId_relat

It is possible? if yes… how?

SQLDataSource control supports one select only ?

Answer 1

User SQL join…

SELECT orders.orderId, users.username
FROM orders
INNER JOIN users
on orders.userId_relat = users.userId
WHERE userId = @userId
