SQL server 2008, get a new table by selecting two columns from two different tables that do not share same column information

Question

this question is based on

SQL 2008 R2 CTE syntax error in a SELECT statement

On SQL server 2008, I need to get a new table by selecting two columns from two different tables.

  address (from another_table)    id_num (from a cte created by me)
  city_1                        65 
  city_1                        36
  city_2                        65
  city_2                        36
  city_3                        65
  city_3                        36

Suppose that id_num has only 65 and 36 two values. The cte has no column of "address". the another_table has no column of id_num.

for each address, I need to associate all id_num in cte to the address

Any help would be appreciated.

Answer 1

If this isn't a join, and you want to associate all id_nums to all addresses, then use:

select distinct address, id_num
from another_table, cte

If you want the id_num to only be associated with addresses that match some criteria add a where clause:

where cte.field1 = address.field1
