Hi,
Can anyone help me turn this into a left join?
I want to get all of the records from the directors table whether matches
exist in the members table or not.
SELECT d.directorid, d.fname, d.mname, d.lname, d.title, d.suffix,
d.active, d.function,
m.id, m.directorid, m.committee, m.position, m.year FROM directors as d,
members as m
WHERE d.directorid = m.directorid
AND m.year = '2006'
ORDER BY d.lname, d.mname, d.fname;
Thank you for your help...
Keith
