Hi,
I think the problem is that your assuming that journoNatOpt.journoid is
'' (empty) when journoDetails.journoid has no entry in journoNatOpt.
But that's not true, the value is NULL.
So, try replacing
AND journoNatOpt.journoid = ''
with
AND journoNatOpt.journoid IS NULL

That was where I was going wrong. I had previously tried = Null which
doesn't work but IS NULL works.
Thanks.

Are you sure u have
journoNatOpt.journoid = ''
records?
select count(*) where journoNatOpt.journoid = ''
If not, maybe IS NULL instead of = ''
will help.
