  1. Advance Queries (cont.) INFSY 445 Fall 2005

  2. Outer Joins • Describes what happens when values in one table do not exist in the second table • LEFT JOIN • RIGHT JOIN • FULL JOIN

  3. Outer Joins • LEFT JOIN • All rows in left table displayed • When no matching value in table on right, NULL values inserted into output • RIGHT JOIN works same except right table takes priority

  4. Outer Joins • Caution – joining 2 large tables could produce meaningless results • Order of join causes different results • *= is symbol for OUTER JOIN in databases not SQL 92 compliant

  5. Union • Used to join rows of data from similar tables • The data from both table must match! SELECT employeeID, name, salary, ‘East’ AS Office FROM EmployeeEast UNION SELECT employeeID, name, salary, ‘West’ AS Office FROM EmployeeWest;

  6. Union • Basic command eliminates duplicate rows • To keep duplicates, use UNION ALL

  7. Union / Except / Intersect

  8. Reflexive Join • Join a table to itself • An employee has one boss; a boss can have many employees.

  9. Reflexive Join • What would the tables look like?

  10. Reflexive Join • SELECT Employee.number, Employee.Fname, Employee.manager, E2.Fname • FROM Employee INNER JOIN Employee AS E2 • ON Employee.manager = E2.number;

  11. Joining Tables • NATURAL JOIN • Automatically join 2 tables with a commonly named and defined column • SELECT title, pubid, name • FROM publisher NATURAL JOIN books;
