How To Use Left Outer Join In Two Tables?
Nov 8, 2007Hi all,
I need a small help in creating a join query in sql.
My two tables are A and B. A has got columns id, dname, counter and
date. B has got two columns link and date. The primary key of A
is the column Id whereas in table B, both are primary keys(composite key).
I need to get the records (id,dname,counter) from A which has no
corresponding link in table B.
To be precise, If the table A has fields (id,dname,counter) (1,abc,2000)
and if table B has no record for abc, this row should be returned from A.I hope using left outer join will help me in getting my desired result.I hope someone will be able to help me out.
Thanking all in advance for your valuable time.

Jun 13, 2008I am writing a query in SQL Analyzer to put into a DTS Package. Everything works perfectly in my query, except for the fact that all of the columns are left-justified, and I need to right justify four of the columns that have numbers. These columns are "Land", "Improvement", "Total", and "Farmstead".
Here is the query in question:
Select PARCEL,

How To Update A Row Based On Left-joined Tables?
May 12, 2008Each row of my datagrid comes from two tables, A and B, which are (left) joined: not every row from table A has a corresponding row in table B. I think this is quite a common scenario.If I want to edit a row in my datagrid which contains data from both Table A and Table B then presumably I can just use an UPDATE statement behind the scenes.But what happens if I want to edit a particular row in the datagrid which contains data from Table A but no corresponding data from table B? I can't use an UPDATE statement because the record in Table B doesn't yet exist. So what do I do?Does anyone know the answer to this, or could you point me to a good tutorial please?

Mar 27, 2007Hi,
I'm having problem with left join ...
Let's say i've these following tables
academic
ID | year | level | m_l
----------------------------------------------
147 | 2006 | dip | 20
148 | 2006 | dip | 12
course
ID | year | level | course_desc | m_l
----------------------------------------------
147 | 2006 | dip | k | 7
147 | 2006 | dip | b | 11
Hint
----
(1) see course table, select sum(m_l) from course where ID=147 and year=2006 and level='dip' = 18
(2) after query from (1), if user select ID=147, year=2006, level=dip, then m_l receiving 2 or less only (0,1,2).
What i've done shown as follow:-
SELECT a.ID, a.Year, a.Level, a.m_l - b.m_l [value_left_in_course]
FROM
academic a
LEFT JOIN
(SELECT SUM(m_l) [m_l] FROM course
where ID=147 and year=2006 and level='dip'

where a.ID=147 and a.year=2006 and a.level='dip'
the result is
ID | year | level | value_left_in_course
----------------------------------------------
147 | 2006 | dip | 2
MY PROBLEM IS WHEN NO ROWS in course when ID=148, then i'm query as above the result is
ID | year | level | value_left_in_course
----------------------------------------------
147 | 2006 | dip | (null)
How to writing SQL to changing (null), then the result shown as follow?
ID | year | level | value_left_in_course
----------------------------------------------
147 | 2006 | dip | 12

SQL Server 2014 :: 2 Tables Combined Left Join To Primary Key Of A 3 Third Table
Sep 1, 2014Looking to improve performance of the following code.
It basically generates future days for each dog. So there is a dog table and a day table with every day.
These 2 table cross join and then fill in missing rows. As time moves i will fill in further future dates but will need the initial insert to be a reasonable query.
All columns are covered by index's but the queries at the end take quite a long time. I would hope for index scan to just point out the missing rows especially on the final query.
How to make the last query as fast as possible.

Left Join Vs Left Outer Join Syntax Generates Different Execution Plans
Apr 16, 2008
Anyone know why using
SELECT *
FROM a LEFT OUTER JOIN b
ON a.id = b.id
instead of
SELECT *
FROM a LEFT JOIN b
ON a.id = b.id
generates a different execution plan?
My query is more complex, but when I change "LEFT OUTER JOIN" to "LEFT JOIN" I get a different execution plan, which is absolutely baffling me! Especially considering everything I know and was able to research essentially said the "OUTER" is implied in "LEFT JOIN".
Any enlightenment is very appreciated.

How To Join 3 Tables Using Left Or Right Join Keyword?
Aug 17, 2007Hi guys,
I'll appreciate any help with the following problem:
I need to retrieve data from 3 tables. 2 master tables and 1 transaction table.
1. Master table TBLOC contain 2 records :
rcd 1. S01
rcd 2. S02
2. Master table TBCODE contain 5 records:
rcd 1. C1
rcd 2. C2
rcd 3. C3
rcd 4. C4
rcd 5. C5
3. Transaction table TBITEM contain 4 records which link to 2 master table:
rcd 1. S01, C1, CAR
rcd 2. S01, C4, TOY
rcd 3. S01, C5, KEY
rcd 4. S02, C2, CAR
I use Left Join & Right Join to retrieve result below (using non-ASNI method) but it doesn't work.
Right Join method:
SELECT C.LOC, B.CODE, A.ITEM FROM TBITEM A RIGHT JOIN TBCODE B ON A.CODE = B.CODE
RIGHT JOIN TBLOC C ON A.LOC = C.LOC
GROUP BY C.LOC, B.CODE, A.ITEM ORDER BY C.LOC, B.CODE
When I use Non-ASNI method it work:
SELECT C.LOC, B.CODE, A.ITEM FROM TBITEM A, TBCODE B, TBLOC C
WHERE A.CODE =* B.CODE AND A.LOC =* C.LOC
GROUP BY C.LOC, B.CODE, A.ITEM ORDER BY C.LOC, B.CODE
Result:
LOC CODE ITEM
-----------------------------
S01 C1 NULL
S01 C2 NULL
S01 C3 CAR
S01 C4 TOY
S01 C5 KEY
S02 C1 NULL
S02 C2 CAR
S02 C3 NULL
S02 C4 NULL
S02 C5 NULL
Please Help.

SQL LEFT JOIN Help
Jan 26, 2007I'm trying to join 2 tables. I thought I was getting the correct results but it turns out I'm not.
My Query:
SELECT IVINVA, IVORDN, IVCSLN, IVRESR, IVCITM, CONVERT(varchar(12),CAST(IVIAMT as money),1) AS ExtPrice, CONVERT(varchar(12),CAST(IVPIVC as money),1) AS DistPrice, IVCSUM, IVQYCS, IVDESC, OIRESR, OIDPCT, CONVERT(varchar(12),CAST(IVPIVC - (OIDPCT / 100 * IVPIVC) as money),1) AS NetPrice FROM INVDET1_TBL LEFT JOIN ORDDIS_TBL ON ORDDIS_TBL.OIORDN = INVDET1_TBL.IVORDN AND ORDDIS_TBL.OIRESR = INVDET1_TBL.IVRESR WHERE IVORDN = '0859919' AND IVINVA = '00324024'
Basically, my problem lies in the seonc condition of the LEFT JOIN. I needed to set the two tables equal my item number, because in some situations I need that logic to get the correct result. It most other cases, that item column in the ORDDIS_TBL is NULL, thus giving me the wrong results. In that case, I would want the JOIN to only be ORDDIS_TBL.OIORDN = INVDET1_TBL.IVORDN, and not include the second part. Is there a way I can condition this with an If statement, If ORDDIS_TBL.OIRESR is Null then do this join, if not, then do this? I'm confused how to get the proper result here.

Left Joins And Where
Apr 25, 1999To the wise,
This may be a very simple problem but it's been racking may brains for a while and I just can't seem to think it through clearly.
I'm trying to return a query which uses a left join and where. I'm hoping to get a result set which shows - let us says all the departments in a company. I would like to see all the department but only the names of department heads that earn 20.000+.
In MS Access I used a subquery. My subquery returned only departments with department heads that earned 20.000+ - I then left joined the departments table to that query - no problem.
With MSSQL I've tried IN, ANY, ALL but my result sets only returns the departments that earn 20.000+ and the employees for those particular departments.
I'm thinking there must be some way of doing this without having to use a union clause.
Thanks for taking the time to read this message through.
Sincerely,
Arthur Lambiris

I am running a MS SQL 2000 my database is full of relational data and most of my foreign keys (INT data type) are a Clustered Indexed, Usually I will only be pulling one record from collection of about a dozen tables, but the Database is expected to grow fast and become big.
Right now I have a Stored Proc that has eight(8) LEFT JOINs in it. My worry is that this query will kill me as the database approaches 50,000 records.
