I'm not sure how to word this properly, but I have TABLE1 with items and TABLE2 with categories.  Is there a way to append each line item in TABLE 1 with TABLE2?

TABLE1

Item Description
ITEM1 DESCRIPTION1
ITEM2 DESCRIPTION2
ITEM3 DESCRIPTION3

TABLE2

Category
CATEGORY1
CATEGORY2
CATEGORY3
CATEGORY4
CATEGORY5

Desired result

Item Description Category
ITEM1 DESCRIPTION1 CATEGORY1
    CATEGORY2
    CATEGORY3
    CATEGORY4
    CATEGORY5
ITEM2 DESCRIPTION2 CATEGORY1
    CATEGORY2
    CATEGORY3
    CATEGORY4
    CATEGORY5
ITEM3 DESCRIPTION3 CATEGORY1
    CATEGORY2
    CATEGORY3
    CATEGORY4
    CATEGORY5

 

Thanks in advance!

So I assume you have already connected to both Table1 and Table2. Then, in the Table1 query, you add a Custom column with the formula:

=Table2

Now expand the new column with Tables and you will get what you describe. Though 'Item' and 'Description' will be repeated on each row.
