Try the Query Wizard. That is, create a new query, and choose the second
item from the list you're presented.

i guess i eigher missed something in my explanation or i'm not
following your directions on using wizard (those tables do NOT have any
relations, and in query i would need add to tblA a field which contains
data (hours) from tblB: hours by specific zone, see both tables in
previous posting)...

I don't understand the question yet.

What exactly do you want in your query output?
