Try this instead:

    <table>
    [query type="html" sql=|
        SELECT  m.sku, p.description
        FROM    products p, merchandising m
        WHERE   p.sku = m.sku
    ]][/query]
    </table>

If you still have trouble then please specify which database system
you are using, what error messages you get etc.

As a general rule of thumb, if a query fails when using an SQL
command-line tool then it will fail in Interchange.
