If I understand your question

UserTable:
NumUser
FirstName
Lastname
otherUserFields

CreatedTable
CreatedTableID
NumUser
Createdby
Modifiedby

So your join would look like

Select
	a.NumUser,
	a.FirstName,
	a.LastName,
	b.Createdby,
	b.Modifiedby

from UserTable a
	Left Join CreatedByTable b
	on a.Numuser = b.NumUser
