Is there any way to use except that won't remove the non-distinct rows from the left side of the query? ---(end of broadcast)--- TIP 2: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster

I tried using EXCEPT ALL but it seems to only remove one row when there is more then one matching row? Thanks Ray Madigan -Original Message- From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Behalf Of Tom Lane Sent: Monday, February 04, 2008 6:20 PM To: Ray Madigan Cc: Pgsql-Sql Subject:
