All Lat Lng of a sql table within 15 Km to each La

Question

SQL 2008

I have two tables. One table (A) have around 4000 locations with lat lng. Another table (B) having 800 locations with lat lng.

I need each lat lng of Table B with all corresponding lat lngs within 15 Km of radius.

I am using sql 2008 and very new to geographical queries.
