I wish to SELECT all the fields from a 52-field table, but use a JOIN later in the query using one of the fields (Payment_Method) for that JOIN. So I will have:

t2.description AS Payment_Method,

as part of the SELECT portion of the query. How can I reference the Payment_Method field without causing ambiguity with the SELECT *? I don't want to have to list every other field manually. Is there a way to do this please?

I have to keep the field name Payment_Method as a PHP script will be using it.
