How do you select all the columns from one table and just some columns from another table using JOIN? In MySQL.

Just use the table name:

SELECT myTable.*, otherTable.foo, otherTable.bar...

That would select all columns from myTable and columns foo and bar from otherTable.

I need more information really but it will be along the lines of..

SELECT table1.*, table2.col1, table2.col3 FROM table1 JOIN table2 USING(id)

select a.* , b.Aa , b.Ab, b.Ac from table1 a left join table2 b on a.id=b.id

this should select all columns from table 1 and only the listed columns from table 2 joined by id.

Using alias for referencing the tables to get the columns from different tables after joining them.

Select tb1.*, tb2.col1, tb2.col2 from table1 tb1 JOIN table2 tb2 on tb1.Id = tb2.Id
