Join a temporary table to query result in SQL - sql

Question

I'm fairly new to SQL and looking for a simple/succinct way to achieve the following:
I have a query which has a nested select statement, and this nested select returns the data to a temporary table. I would for this temp table to be joined onto the initial return, however, I am just unsure about how I would achieve this.
SELECT Profile.profilename as Recipient,
Message.messagetext as MessageText,
message.datesent as DateSent
FROM Profile
INNER JOIN
Message ON Profile.profile_id = Message.profile_idtoo
WHERE Message.profile_idfrom = 3
(
SELECT profilename from Profile
Inner JOIN
Message on Profile.profile_id = Message.profile_idfrom
WHERE Message.profile_idfrom = 3
)
--Create tables and data.

Thanks for any help.

Answer 1

You can try below
DEMO
SELECT Profile.profile_id,Profile.profilename as Recipient, m1.profilename,
Message.messagetext as MessageText,
message.datesent as DateSent
FROM Profile
INNER JOIN
Message ON Profile.profile_id = Message.profile_idtoo
inner join (SELECT profile_id,profilename from Profile
Inner JOIN
Message on Profile.profile_id = Message.profile_idfrom
WHERE Message.profile_idfrom = 3) m1 on Message.profile_idfrom = m1.profile_id
WHERE Message.profile_idfrom = 3

Answer 2

Without knowing what else you want from the second table in your result set this may also work...keep in mind you have inner joins from the same table on two different fields, you may be excluding results or it may be the intended result :) More info would be helpful!
SELECT PROFILE.profilename AS Recipient,
MessageToo.messagetext AS MessageText,
MessageToo.datesent AS DateSent
FROM PROFILE
INNER JOIN Message MessageToo ON PROFILE.profile_id = Message.profile_idtoo
INNER JOIN Message MessageFrom ON PROFILE.profile_id = Message.profile_idfrom
WHERE Message.profile_idfrom = 3
SELECT PROFILE.profilename AS Recipient,
MessageToo.messagetext AS MessageText,
MessageToo.datesent AS DateSent
FROM PROFILE
LEFT JOIN Message MessageToo ON PROFILE.profile_id = Message.profile_idtoo
WHERE PROFILE.profile_idfrom = 3
