Thanks to Juanse Barros J. and Bill Donaldson for their suggestions. It
appears that it is not possible to do what I wanted using an SQL statement.
What I have done instead is write a small MapBasic application that uses the
SelChangedHandler procedure that monitors when a selection has changed in
the ZONES table and updates a query based on the ORIGDEST table. It seems to
be exactly what I want. Email me if you are interested in the code...

Subject: MI-L One-to-many joining/linking two tables


Greetings,

I have a SQL problem that I cannot seem to figure out how to implement. I
have a table of zones (call it ZONES), which has one field (called ZONE) and
a table of Origin-Destination pairs (call it ORIGDEST), with two fields
(ORIGZONE and DESTZONE). What I would like to do is to be able to join the
two tables so that when I select a record in the ZONES table, the records
with matching ORIGZONE are selected in the joined table (eventually, I want
to be able to make both tables mappable, so that when I select a ZONE in the
ZONES map, it selects all of the DESTZONES, but I'm starting small...). In
ArcView you can do this by "linking" the two tables. Is this possible to do
in MapInfo? I haven't been able to find any help in the archives, so please
help me out...
