For one specific label:
select TableB.label from TableA, TableB where TableA.idA=TableB.idA and
TableA.name='test2';
To get a list of name-label pairs:
select TableA.name, TableB.label from TableA, TableB where TableA.idA=TableB.idA
order by TableA.name, TableB.label;

Subject: [GENERAL] query help
Hi all,
How would I get TableB.label if all I know about is TableA.name?
I was thinking about a query on TableA first, then within the while
(rs.next()), I'd do another query using the result set from A on B, but I
don't like that much, and it seems kind of slow.
Any help much appreciated!
TableA
idA | name | class
-----------------
11 test1 1
12 test2 1
13 test3 2
14 test4 2
TableB
idB | idA | label
----------------
1 11 nameA
2 12 nameB
3 13 nameC
4 14 nameD
---------------------------(end of broadcast)---------------------------
