Assuiming the records t2 do not duplicate

SELECT DISTINCT t2.*
FROM table2 t2 LEFT JOIN table1 t1 ON (t1.field1=t2.f ield1);
Also, check out EXISTS,

I have two tables, WIDGETS and VERSIONS. The WIDGETS table has descriptive information about the widgets while the VERSIONS table contains IDs relating to different iterations of those widgets over the years. The idea is that from any widget in the database you can look forward and backward to see different versions of the widget through the years. Here are the tables: WIDGETS widget_id name
