Hi,

I have two tables and in first table it contains 13 columns and from second table only one column i need to add to table 1. I am getting the data from a database, can you please help me out.

the below query is using to get first table data,

| dbxquery query="SELECT BEX_DTE_BSNS, BEX_NUM_COMPL, BEX_NUM_COMPL_TYPE, BEX_TSP_END, BEX_CNT_EXEC, BEX_NUM_GROUP, BEX_NUM_JOB, BEX_NME_NET, BEX_NUM_RESTART, BEX_TSP_START, BEX_NME_BPR, BEX_NME_LOCATION, BEX_IND_SKIPPED FROM \"LoanIQDB\".\"LS2USER\".\"VLS_BATCH_EXEC\"" connection="loaniq_10_10_2_10"

the below query is to get that particular column from that 2nd table,

| dbxquery query="SELECT BNT_DSC_JOB FROM \"LoanIQDB\".\"LS2USER\".\"VLS_BATCH_NET\"" connection="loaniq_10_10_2_10"

Well, you can use appendcols but the question is whether the resulting set will make any sense.

If you have any means of corelating between those two queries, you should do so on the DB level and return complete results. Otherwise you'll just get two unrelated sets of fields glued together without any logical link between them.
