Syntax Error On LEFT JOIN
Mar 10, 2008
Hello
I am seeing the following syntax error:
Error on Primary Select: Line 4: Incorrect syntax near '='.
When I try to join two tables see my code below:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
SELECT a.ProdName as [Product Name], b.price,b.link FROM
Prod_CatA a LEFT JOIN (SELECT ProdName, Price, '<a href="' + url + '">' + Title + '</a>' as Link
FROM ProdNames WHERE = url like 'http:%' ) b ON a.ProdName=b.ProdName
Where a.Red = 'yes'
ORDER BY a.ProdName ASC
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
I unable to find a solution. I would be grateful if somebody could please advise.
Thanks
Lynn

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.
Thanks

I am trying to do a left join from one table a to table B on a column CEO_ID which is of datatype varchar(5) in table A and of datatye nvarchar(20) in table b.The resultset gives me all the rows that are in both the tables except a few..So when I looked at the records that are missing, it is stored as 00392 in table A and 392 in table b and that is the reason it is not showing that record in the result.How can I show these records?
Query
Select p.CEO_ID,p.Part_ID,ct.CEO_ID__c
from
Contact ct
left join
Main5.dbo.Part p
on
p.CEO_ID = Convert(varchar(5),ct.CEO_ID__c) collate database_default
where
ct.CEO_ID__c = 392
ResultSet
CEO_ID CEO_ID__c
------ ---------
NULL 392
Please help me !

I have been working on this for a little bit and have gotten to this point. Below is the query in blue, the error in red. Now, from what I gather the error is telling me I can't insert a duplicate product code into tblProduct. Isn't that what the left join is exactly not doing, as in, the left join is inserting all records from Complete_records into tblProduct where the code is null(does not exist) in tblProduct? Or, is this an issue where the identity number, productID in tblProduct, isn't starting at the next number in turn?
Thanks.
Set Identity_Insert tblProduct on
DECLARE @MaxId int
SELECT @MaxID=MAX(productID)
FROM tblProduct
SELECT IDENTITY(int,1,1) AS ID,Complete_products.APNum, Complete_products.Title, Complete_products.CategoryID, Complete_products.Mountable, Complete_products.price,
Complete_products.Height, Complete_products.Width, Complete_products.IRank, Complete_products.frameable, Complete_products.Typ INTO #Temp
FROM Complete_products LEFT OUTER JOIN
tblProduct AS tblProduct_1 ON Complete_products.APNum = tblProduct_1.productCode
where tblProduct_1.productCode IS NULL
INSERT INTO tblProduct
(productID,productCode, productName, productNavID, CanBeMounted, productRetailPrice, productHeight, productWidth, Rank, CanBeFramed, ProductType)
SELECT @MaxID + ID, APNum, Title, CategoryID, Mountable, price,
Height, Width, IRank, frameable, Typ
FROM #Temp
(236752 row(s) affected)
Msg 2601, Level 14, State 1, Line 13

I was writing a query using both left outer join and inner join. And the query was ....
SELECT
S.companyname AS supplier, S.country,P.productid, P.productname, P.unitprice,C.categoryname
FROM
Production.Suppliers AS S LEFT OUTER JOIN
(Production.Products AS P
INNER JOIN Production.Categories AS C
[code]....
However ,the result that i got was correct.But when i did the same query using the left outer join in both the cases
i.e..
SELECT
S.companyname AS supplier, S.country,P.productid, P.productname, P.unitprice,C.categoryname
FROM
Production.Suppliers AS S LEFT OUTER JOIN
(Production.Products AS P
LEFT OUTER JOIN Production.Categories AS C
ON C.categoryid = P.categoryid)
ON
S.supplierid = P.supplierid
WHERE
S.country = N'Japan';
The result i got was same,i.e
supplier country productid productname unitprice categorynameSupplier QOVFD Japan 9 Product AOZBW 97.00 Meat/PoultrySupplier QOVFD Japan 10 Product YHXGE 31.00 SeafoodSupplier QOVFD Japan 74 Product BKAZJ 10.00 ProduceSupplier QWUSF Japan 13 Product POXFU 6.00 SeafoodSupplier QWUSF Japan 14 Product PWCJB 23.25 ProduceSupplier QWUSF Japan 15 Product KSZOI 15.50 CondimentsSupplier XYZ Japan NULL NULL NULL NULLSupplier XYZ Japan NULL NULL NULL NULL
and this time also i got the same result.My question is that is there any specific reason to use inner join when join the third table and not the left outer join.

Why does this right join return the same results as using a left (or even a full join)?There are 470 records in Account, and there are 1611 records in Contact. But any join returns 793 records.
select Contact.firstname, Contact.lastname, Account.[Account Name]
from Contact
right join Account
on Contact.[Account Name] = Account.[Account Name]
where Contact.[Account Name] = Account.[Account Name]

Hi 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

Forgive the noob question, but i'm still learning SQL everyday and was wondering which of the following is faster? I'm just gonna post parts of the SELECT statement that i've made changes to:
INNER JOIN Facilities f ON e.Facility = f.FacilityID AND f.Name = @FacilityName
OR
WHERE f.Name = @FacilityName
My question is whether or not the query runs faster if i put the condition within the JOIN line as opposed to putting in the WHERE line? Both ways seems to return the same results but the time difference between methods is staggering? Putting the condition within the JOIN line makes the query run about 3 times faster?
Again, forgive my lack of understanding, but could someone agree or disagree and give me the cliff-notes version of why or why not?
Thanks!

I'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.

As you can see the ParentIndexID and ChildIndexID fields refer to tblIndices.IndexID
I would like a stored procedure as follows:
show all index names and show the wights for the indexID you passed.
This is what I have so far and it is not correct yet. Not sure what the syntax should be.
alter PROCEDURE [dbo].[uspBasketIndices_Get]

select
i.IndexID,

Any one know any facts and figures about maximum Left Joins allowed (or recommended) in one query?
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.

left join hrappempeducs as ed on e.empdcno = ed.empdcno
left join hrsetschools as sch on ed.schoolcode = sch.schcode
the above query gives a 77 records
if i ran "select * from hremployees" generates 60 records
i think the error is in the left joining.
hrappempcharrefs, hrappempeducs and hrsetschools must be left joined to hremployees.

Hello!
I need to write a query using left outer join and I'm having trouble with it.
I have 2 tables:customer and cust_info.
I want to pull all records from customer table and cust_info table even if there is no related data in cust_info table.
But I need one condition in this query:only records from customer table where cus_type in ("A","B","C").
I don't need all other types ("D","E").
So my query looks like this:
select customer.cus_name,customer.cus_address,customer.cu s_type,cus_info.status
from customer
left outer join cus_info ON customer.sxdat_pk = cus_info.sxdat_pk
and cus_type in ("A","B","C")
AND cus_info.cus_table = 'CUSTOMER'
The result should be like this:
cus_name cus_address cus_type status
Amoco 457 bent A new
Bingo 47 lone oak C NULL
Sears 1020 Magic dr. B exist
But my query pulls records for customers with type "D" and "E" that I'm trying to exclude from result.
Please help.
Thanks,

Hello everybody!!!
I have to left join 2 tables. The first consists of columns:id, description, descr_num.
The second table: id, descr_num, value.
I need to extract description from table1 where descr_num is in the range , say, 1-10.
LEFT JOIN
extract value from table2 ,descr_num should be in the same range. in table2 some values from (1,10) and desc_num could be not present.
BUT i want this left join to be limited as i said.
Is there any solution to this prob. without creating temp tables. Or actually can i do such a join?

1 Peter Null Null true
2 Juli 1, xxxx 2 true
3 Sam Null Null False
table cst_EmpType
intEmpType nvcEmployeeType
1 Free Enginner
2 Manager
3 Operator
To join the table but MUST follow the condition as bitActiv = TRUE:
select emp.nvcEmpName, emp.nvcEmpAddress, ety. nvcEmployeeType from cst_EmpProfile emp left join cst_EmpType on emp.intEmployeeTypee = ety.intEmpType and emp.bitActiv = 1.
But, the sql statement doesnt output the my expected result.
Because the data row return must be 1st and 2nd row as it bitActiv = true.
So, how's I going achieve what i want. tq.

Hi,
Iwant to make a left join between two tables connected with a specific field
but I also want to have some criteria on the right table.
I want to display all the rows from the first(left) table and only the rows from the secod (right) table that match the join and the criteria.
However If I have criteria on the second table the join behaves like an inner join displaying only the rows that exist in both tables.
In MS Access instead of the right table I use a query in which I enter the criteria and then I connect it with a left join in a new query in order to get the right results. How can I do itin MSSQLServer without using Views?
Must I use a subquery with Exists and what is the right syntax in order to achieve this?
Best Regards,
manolis Perrakis
