Compare Key and column from another table

‎11-11-2019 05:38 AM

Hello,

 

I have a table that is my list of weeks and their corresponding week end (ie 1 with 11/9/19, 2 with 11/16/19). I have a table that has a column using the list of weeks. I want to compare these two, and if the values are equal for the second table to have the week end date. 

 

I've tried using an if statement but that's restricted to working in the same table.
