                                          Seems like there is something not quite right with the data or the setup - although I am not able to tell you what it is without understanding the business logic better. May be a query such as this is what you are looking for?select	a.account_id,	a.name,	b.charfrom	tableA a	inner join tableB b on a.account_Id = b.account_idwhere	a.account_id in 	(		select x.account_id from tableB x 		where x.char = 'name1'	)   |
