Multiple queries SQL

Question

I am pretty new to this game. Can anyone help me with probably a very simple query.
I want to write a query which returns all rows from table 1, and also returns all rows from table 2, however there is no relationship between the tables. I want to view these in crystal reports, based upon their date field which I will also be recieving.
An example would be
SELECT * from tbl1
AND
SELECT * from tbl2
Any help would be really appreciated.

Hi,
You can present the results side by side.
Use the analytic ROW_NUMBER function to number the rows in each result set 1, 2, 3, ...
Outer join using that number.
For example:
WITH    dept_plus_rnum     AS
     SELECT     deptno
     ,     dname
     ,     ROW_NUMBER () OVER (ORDER BY dname)     AS rnum
     FROM     scott.dept
,     emp_plus_rnum     AS
     SELECT  ename
     ,     hiredate
     ,     job
     ,     ROW_NUMBER () OVER (ORDER BY ename)     AS rnum
     FROM     scott.emp
SELECT     d.deptno
,     d.dname
,     e.ename
,     e.hiredate
,     e.job
FROM           dept_plus_rnum     d
FULL OUTER JOIN      emp_plus_rnum     e     ON     d.rnum     = e.rnum
ORDER BY  d.rnum
,            e.rnum
;Output:
.   DEPTNO DNAME          ENAME      HIREDATE  JOB
        10 ACCOUNTING     ADAMS      23-MAY-87 CLERK
        40 OPERATIONS     ALLEN      20-FEB-81 SALESMAN

                          MILLER     23-JAN-82 CLERK
                          SCOTT      19-APR-87 ANALYST
