Query That Uniquely Blends Values
Greetings, Experts! I've been out of the loop with Access for quite a while and need your help with a small query project.
I have two tables. I need to have a query that merges the values in a manner as shown below:
TABLE 1:
Dog
Cat
Human
TABLE 2:
1
2
3
QUERY RESULTS: (single field)
Dog 1
Cat 1
Human 1
Dog 2
Cat 2
Human 2
Dog 3
Cat 3
Human 3
I know that this can be done, and can almost figure it out. Ol' Toddy is stumped. Help a poor guy out, purty please?
I thank you kindly!

Oh, ..the background....

This is called a Cartesian Product
It is technically done by using a CROSS JOIN (Explicit)
However Access does not support CROSS JOIN,(... I don't think...?)
So I used the "Implicit" syntax above.
You can do a search here or on the web for: Cartesian Cross Join

That's right! It makes sense after you mentioned the background information.
Thank you sooooo much, Jeff. You da man.
