Good morning list,
Environment HP-UX 11.0 Oracle 8.1.6
Can anyone help with this SQL.
I can get a result set of values from a table
that match a given list of values -
select code
from table
where code in ('A','B','C','D','E')
I can get a result set of values from a table
that do not match a given list of values -
select code
from table
where code not in ('A','B','C','D','E')
So far so good.
Now, how do I get the set of values from the list
that do NOT have a matching value in the table?
I cannot create any objects in the schema I am
working in otherwise I would create a table with
the values and do a minus, but I can't figure out
how to do it in SQL only.
Thanks in advance, folks.
Steve
