== Open a new query
== Add both tables to the query
== DRAG from Employer name in the Employers table to the Employer name in the
Students table to create a JOIN (it will appear as a line between the two
table fields).
== Select the fields you want to see in the result. (Double-click on the
fields or drag the fields into the grid.)

That is the basics.

hello kind folks who have vast knowledge...

I have a table of students who are employed by various companies. The table
has a field where the employer's name is entered. AND I have a separate
table of employer company details. I would like to be able to create a query
that gives me the student names, their employer's name, and their employer's
details. The employer's names are entered identically in the fields of both
tables (ie spelling etc)...

It seems like a simple problem but I just don't seem to be able to figure
out how to do it.. any advice would be great. thank you
