I found the solution. 

For the record:

SqlQuery1 (master)
SqlQuery2 (detail)

In SqlQuery2.Sql.Text I had to add a "where" condition with a param, for
example:

select * from a_table where a_field = :field_from_query1

The param must be a Field from SqlQuery1.

Then, by code, i had to the param type:

SQLQuery2.ParamByName('field_from_query1').DataType := ftInteger; 

The last step is to point SqlQuery2.DataSource to a TDataSource
associated to SqlQuery1. In my case I have two TDbGrids in form1, each
grid with a TDataset pointed to SqlQuery1 and SqlQuery2, so in
SqlQuery2.DataSource I assigned "form1.datasource1", and that's it.
