Creating CROSS JOIN query using Query Builder

edited January 2011 in End User
How do I create a cross join query on 2 tables using the query builder?

For example, SELECT a, b FROM Table1, Table2


When the second table is added, query builder requests the join criteria
which does not appear to allow for CROSS JOINS.


Thank you

    Hi Richard,

    The QueryDesigner does not natively support cross joins however I would be
    interested to know exactly what you are trying to accomplish. It may be
    easier to simply use two separate queries rather than a single joined one.

    If you must use a cross join, you will need to edit the sql manually in
    DADE.

    Thanks Nico - the 2 separate queries will work.
