Query based on a Complete Field in a Table

I have setup two tables
Complete_Data & Selection_List

In th Selection_List i have only one field, which have values like
CM01
CM02
....

In the Complete_Data i have data like
CM01_PI001 1.5 12/5/2003
CM02_PI002 2.5 13/9/2003

I would like the Selction_List to act as a selction criteria to find
records of all the fields that start with that of specified in
Selction_List e.g.

CM01****
CM02****

and to find all such records from Complete_data.

How can i do that?

Try this:
select * from Complete_Data where Left$(myField1,4) in (select
myField2 from Selection_List)
(replace myField1 and 2 with your actual field names)
