Im wondering what is the best way to get related data from two 
tables.  This would be the MySQL database structure:

Table Name: Category
CategoryID  (autonumber)
CategoryName (text)

Table Name: Subcategory
SubcategoryID (autonumber)
SubcategoryName (text)

Table Name: Product
ProductID (autonumber)
CategoryID (linked to category table)
SubcategoryID (linked to subcategory table)
ProductSKU (text)


If i know the ProductID, what is the BEST way to get the CategoryName, and 
SubcategoryName?

Two Querys (one in a CFLOOP) ?
Query inside of a Query   ?
INNER JOIN   ?
WHERE Product.CategoryID = Category.CategoryID  ?

Thanks In advanced,
Chad
