I am new to SQL and have an issue I can not figure out. I have a query with several JOINS, but know my boss is asking for me to add an entire table to my query to view results. Is it possible to add a table to a query with joins? I have tried subquery but I get an EXIST error message. The only way I was able to get the information was join the table and enter every single column to my query. I hope there is an easier and more efficent way of doing this.

Thanks,

you can simply add the new table with a join into existing query on a column which contains matching values of a table column in query. You can put * if you want to retrieve all the columns from your table(tablename.*).

Thanks for the help. I cant believe something so simple would work. I guess I was thinking too much into my results...
