Some databases have the concept of a natural join. It joins two tables on common columns. Not quite what I would want. I would prefer something like a key join

Some databases have the concept of a natural join. It joins two tables on common columns. Not quite what I would want. I would prefer something like a key join that uses foreign key relationships. I don't know if any database has that though. (If anybody does, please let me know.)

- pjs_ 2y agoNatural join is not jargon that I had heard before but unfortunately it does not refer to what I am talking about - I'm talking about something where the computer automatically figures out how to join across more than two tables.
