Thanks everyone who answered. Right after I sent this, this is what I
tried, and it seems to have worked.
I had open the list of zips that I needed counties for, us_cnty, and zip
tabs.
Used 'Update Column' and set the table to update as my tab with the list
of zips
'Column to Update' I added a temporary column.
'Get Value from Table' as us_cnty'.
'Join' 'where object from table us_cnty' contains object from my zips
list.
'Calculate' as Value
'of:' County'
I spot checked several of the zips, and they seemed to all match up as
they should.
If this is correct, I apologize for asking a *dumb question*. :) Go
easy on the new guy.
Thanks again

I'm sure this is really easy, but I cannot get my head around a way to
do this.
We are using MI Pro 8.0. I am trying to join us_cnty and uszip tab to
match up zips to what county (or counties) they reside in, into one .tab.
Can someone please help me out here?
Thanks
