In the table structure examples listed below, I’m trying to figure out how to join Table1 and Table2 when the values in Table2.Tag_Name are equal to the column names in Table1, i.e. Public_Housing, Private_Funding, Public_Education

Table1.
Account_Id
Status_Id
Public_Housing
Private_Funding
Public_Education

Table2.
Group_Id
Tag_Id
Tag_Name

Thanks.
