Just do both SELECTs at the same time:

SELECT * FROM ANSWERS WHERE id = 1
SELECT * FROM ANSWERS WHERE id = 2

If you're populating a DataSet, it'll have two tables...

If you're populating an SqlDataReader, it'll have two Resultsets - use
MyReader.NextResultset()

If your combined result sets returns too much data then do them separately.

Thanks for all.

But my problem is a little different.

Example:

The system SELECT COUNT the table "QUESTIONS" on DB

commCountQuestions = new SqlCommand("SELECT COUNT(*) AS total FROM
Questions", conn);

Then,

int t = readerPerguntas.GetOrdinal("total");

Then I do a SELECT to Select the Questions in table Questions and Select the
ANSWERS in the table ANSWERS.

for (i=1, i<16, i++)
{
sqlcommQUESTION = "SELECT * FROM Questions WHERE id=" + i + "";
sqlcomm = "SELECT * FROM Answers WHERE id =" + i + "";
}

The problem is: I can't do two readers READ at the same time. I don't know
how to do a JOIN that works.

INFO: One Question have 2 questions or more...

The results should be:

1. What's the color of the sea?

[checkbox] Blue
[checkbox] Red
[checkbox] Yellow
[checkbox] Green

2. Do you like cookies?

[checkbox] Yes
[checkbox] No

3. ... ... ..
[checkbox] ...
I don't know how to solve this problem!!!!

Sorry my english...
