Let's say that a table has been broken in two and I'd like to rejoin them with a query. Let's say 100 records in table1, 20 records in table 2. Here's a random example, I just made the names up off the top of my head:

PersonTable (100 records)
Person # (unique key)
Name
Address

SpouseTable (20 records)
Person # (lookup wizard to Table1, cascading edit/delete relationship, 1 to 1)
WeightOfSpouse
HeightOfSpouse

Many people aren't "married" and so have no corresponding value in the Spouse table. If I do an inner join on the two tables, on Person#, then it will cut the total # or returned records in the query to 20, to match the total in SpouseTable. Essentially, I want to append the results of SpouseTable to the end of the corresponding rows in PersonTable.
