Ross,

Thanks for the reply.  I realized after I sent the email, that we can just
simply drop sp.status = 'A'. 

The developers had me focused on the outer join, trying to do something with
that to ignore the SP table 'D' records but still return the S table
records.

They are rebuilding there query.

Sorry to trouble you.

Thanks.

Chris

SELECT s.study_id, s.status, sp.status
FROM s, sp
WHERE s.study_id = 5014
AND   s.study_id = sp.study_id(+)
AND   s.status   = 'A'
AND   sp.status  in ('A','D')

SELECT s.study_id, s.status, sp.status
FROM s, sp
WHERE s.study_id = 5014
AND   s.study_id = sp.study_id(+)
AND   s.status   = 'A'
AND   sp.status  = 'A'

I'm stuck trying to figure out how to make this SQL work, and am starting to
wonder if it's even possible.

I'm trying to get this SQL to return rows from the S table even if there are
records in the SP table with status of 'D'(logically deleted).

What am I missing??!?!?!?

TIA!!!!

Chris
