I have table1 with multiple columns, the Status column has 3 possible values (1,2,3). I created another table(2) named status_lut (below). When I query table1 I need it to display the StatusName. How would I create the lookup table?StatusNum StatusName

Thank You
I am a bit confused. Isn't what you posted your lookup table? Are you really trying to ask how you would display the StatusName from this table when joining to another table?
