SELECT TBL1.COLUMN1,TBL2.COLUMN2,---------,TBL10.COLUMN10

INNER JOIN TBL3 ON TBL1.ID=TBL3.ID
----
----
----
INNER JOIN TBL10 ON TBL1.ID=TBL10.ID
----------------------------------------
--WE CAN ALSO DISPLAY THE RECORDS WITH OUT USE JOINS

SELECT TBL1.COLUMN1,TBL2.COLUMN2,---------,TBL10.COLUMN10
FROM TBL1,TBLE2,--------,TBL10
WHERE TBL1.ID=TBL2.ID OR TBL1.ID=TBL3.ID OR

TBL1.ID=TBL10.ID
--WE MUST USE WHERE CLAUSE OTHER WISE WE GET Cartesian product.
