Hello I have a table called 'staff' and another name 'course'

Under 'staff' table is:

StaffID
FirstName
Lastname


Under 'Course' is:

CourseID
StaffID
CourseName

My questions is when I do a query under SQL, how do I show the staff's FirstName and Lastname instead of showing the StaffID.

I Hate Spammers and Flammers!!!
 
Simply join the tables:
SELECT C.CourseID, C.CourseName, C.StaffID, S.FirstName, S.LastName
FROM tblCourse C INNER JOIN tblStaff S ON C.StaffID = S.StaffID

Hope This Helps, PH.
