Stefano writes "Hi there, I want to merge 2 tables without any condition on the join clause.
Scenario:
- First table has a single coloumn (col_1_1)
- Second table has a single coloumn (col_2_1)(different number of records)
I want to obtain a result table with 2 coloumns: the first one has to be col_1_1 and col_2_1.
I don't need any criteria on this merging, it should be like an overlapping of the 2 initial tables.
Example:

table1:                   
-------
COL_1_1
-------
me
you
he
she
we
---

table2:
--------
COL_2_1
--------
123
456
789
-----


Result table:
----------------
COL_1_1 ¦COL_2_1
----------------
me ¦123
you ¦456
he ¦789
she ¦<null>
we ¦<null>
-----------



I've tried using different JOIN, but...nothing!

I'd be very thankful if you could help me.
Many thanks
Stefano"
