AFAIK NULL is returned - this is true of Oracle and MSSQL - I don't know if it's DBMS 
specific though...

Subject: [cfaussie] Somewhat OT : SQL Left Join


I'm taking my first cautious steps into coding with Left/Right Joins.

If a record is in one table but not another, what value is expressed ? Is
it Null ?

I'm looking for a way to capture "in onr table but not another" as a value
to increment an array-variable.

The approach I'm currently using has one "driver" query with three queries
nested inside it, and it is of course horrendously slow (about 180
seconds).
