Hello folks,

I have an easy one I am sure...

I am trying to build a query that will show all items that are not found......

Two tables:

Product Table
id, title

Menu Table
id, owner, sub_object

I want to write a query that will find all product IDs in the product table, that are 
not found in either the owner OR the sub_object columns in the menu table.

(looking for orphan records, that are not found anywhere in the menu table).

Any suggestions, here is what I have so far!

        SELECT f.sub_object, p.title, p.sku
         FROM menu_table f, product_table p
         WHERE p.id = f.sub_object 
         OR p.id = f.owner
         AND f.type = 'product'
         AND f.sub_object NOT IN ('p.id')
         AND f.owner NOT IN ('p.id')

Obviously this query doesn't work .. i have completely mangled it trying to get the 
products that cannot be found in the menu.

Any help is greatly appreciated!
