Database Querying: Joining Tables with Shared Column Names When working with databases, it’s not uncommon to encounter tables with shared column names between two or more related tables. In such cases, joining these tables can be a bit tricky. In this article, we’ll explore the concept of joining tables with shared column names and provide a solution for selecting data from multiple tables.
