I have two table like table A , B , i need to select non matching records of A with B ( that is A minus B ) .
A is having multiple columns and B is single column( ID) .
I have tried like below but it is taking too much time
Select * from A where A.ID <> ( select B.ID from B).
And also I have tried
Select * from A left outer join on B where A.ID = B.ID AND B.ID IS NULL
It's showing me wrong result
Please help me to identify solution to this .
Thank you .
use where clause to filter.
Select * from A left outer join B on A.ID = B.ID where B.ID IS NULL

I have a view that I use at work.
My goal is:
If "data on row " = 'petrol' then columns should be fetched from "A table inner join B table"
If "data on row" = 'diesel' then fetch from "C table inner join D table"
Is that possible in same column at the view query? (plsql)
cant i use if else construction for this? problem still not solved because The tables I want to use do not have a common columns
if a =1 then select SAMPLE from sample_table
if a <> 1 then SELECT ANOTHER DIFFRENT from another different unique table
One method would uses left joins and coalesce() for this. Your question doesn't provide many details, but the idea is:
select a.*,
coalesce(b.datas, d.data) as datas
from a left join
b
on . . . and a.column = 'diesel' left join
c
on . . . and a.column <> 'diesel' left join
d
on . . .
Assuming that the columns you require from the tables B and D are of the same data type then you can use UNION ALL with a filter in the WHERE clause:
SELECT a.col1,
a.col2,
b.col3,
b.col4
FROM a INNER JOIN b ON ( a.id = b.id )
WHERE a.other_column = 'petrol'
UNION ALL
SELECT a.col1,
a.col2,
d.col3,
d.col4
FROM a INNER JOIN d ON ( a.id = d.id )
WHERE a.other_column = 'diesel'
I have 2 tables, A and B.
I need all columns from A + 1 column from B in my select.
Unfortunately, B has multiples rows(all identicals) for 1 row in A
on the join condition.
I tried but I can't isolate one row in A for one row in B with left join for example while keeping my select.
How can I do this query ? Query in ORACLE SQL
Thanks in advance.
This is a good use for outer apply. The structure of the query looks like this:
select a.*, b.col
from a outer apply
(select top 1 b.col
from b
where b.? = a.?
) b;
Normally, you would only use top 1 with order by. In this case, it doesn't seem to make a difference which row you choose.
You can group by on all columns from A, and then use an aggregate (like max or min) to pick any of the identical B values:
select a.*
, b.min_col1
from TableA a
left join
(
select a_id
, min(col1) as min_col1
from TableB
group by
a_id
) b
on b.a_id = a.id
I have the following Hive query:
select *
from A
left outer join B
on A.ID = B.ID
where B.ID IS NULL
The result produces duplicate data but I need only non-duplicate records.
After some research, I tried the below query:
select *
from (
select *
from A
left outer join on B
where A.ID = B.ID AND B.ID IS NULL ) join_result
group by jojn_result.ID
It's showing an ambiguous column reference ID error.
I do not have the columns name of table A.
Please help me to identify the solution to this .
Thank you .
Hmmm . . . How about select:
Select A.*
from A left outer join
B
on A.ID = B.ID
where B.ID IS NULL;
I removed the B columns because they are not needed.
One of your join columns may have NULL values. Whenever there is NULL in any of the join key values, it will skip that column. Try replacing the NULL with some default value while joining using NVL or COALESCE. I was looking for same answer and saw your post here. But there was no solution. But since i found the solution I just wanted to post here so that someone can benefit.
select *
from A
left outer join B
on coalesce(A.ID,000) = coalesce(B.ID,000)
where B.ID IS NULL
I have two tables
Table A
-------
ID
ProductName
Table B
-------
ID
ProductID
Size
I want to join these two tables
SELECT * FROM
(SELECT * FROM A)
LEFT JOIN
(SELECT * FROM B)
ON A.ID = B.ProductID
This is easy, I will get all rows from A multiplied by rows matched in B, and NULL fields if there is no match.
But here comes the tricky question, how can I get all rows from A with NULL fields for table B, even if there is a match, so I get an extra line with NULL values plus all the matches?
SELECT A.*
, B3.ID
, B3.ProductID
, B3.Size
FROM A
LEFT JOIN
(
SELECT ProductID as MatchID
, ID
, ProductID
, Size
FROM B
UNION ALL
SELECT ID
, null
, null
, null
FROM A A2
) B3
ON A.ID = B3.MatchID
Live example at SQL Fiddle.
Instead of using UNION ALL in a subquery as suggested by others, you could also (and I would) use UNION ALL at the outer level, which keeps the query simpler:
SELECT A.ID, A.ProductName, B.ID, B.Size
FROM A
INNER JOIN B
ON B.ProductID = A.ID
UNION ALL
SELECT A.ID, A.ProductName, NULL, NULL
FROM A
Since every join is going to be successful, we can switch to a full/inner join:
SELECT
*
FROM
A
INNER JOIN
(SELECT ID,ProductID,Size FROM B
UNION ALL
SELECT NULL,ID,NULL FROM A) B
ON
A.ID = B.ProductID
Now would be a very good time to switch to naming columns explicitly, rather than using SELECT *
Or, if, as per #Andomar's comment, you need all of the B columns to be NULL:
SELECT
A.ID,A.ProductName,
B.ID,B.ProductID,B.Size
FROM
A
INNER JOIN
(SELECT ID,ProductID,Size,ProductID as MatchID FROM B
UNION ALL
SELECT NULL,NULL,NULL,ID FROM A) B
ON
A.ID = B.MatchID
I need to simulate the left join effect without using the "left join" key.
I have two tables, A and B, both with id and name columns. I would like to select all the dbids on both tables, where the name in A equals the name in B.
I use this to make a synchronization, so at the beginning B is empty (so I will have couples with id from A with a value and id from B is null). Later I will have a mix of couples with value - value and value - null.
Normally it would be:
SELECT A.id, B.id
FROM A left join B
ON A.name = B.name
The problem is that I can't use the left join and wanted to know if/how it is possible to do the same thing.
you can use this approach, but you must be sure that the inner select only returns one row.
SELECT A.id,
(select B.id from B where A.name = B.name) as B_ID
FROM A
Just reverse the tables and use a right join instead.
SELECT A.id,
B.id
FROM B
RIGHT JOIN A
ON A.name = B.name
I'm not familiar with java/jpa. Using pure SQL, here's one approach:
SELECT A.id AS A_id, B.id AS B_id
FROM A INNER JOIN B
ON A.name = B.name
UNION
SELECT id AS A_id, NULL AS B_id
FROM A
WHERE name NOT IN ( SELECT name FROM B );
In SQL Server, for example, You can use the *= operator to make a left join:
select A.id, B.id
from A, B
where A.name *= B.name
Other databases might have a slightly different syntax, if such an operator exists at all.
This is the old syntax, used before the join keyword was introduced. You should of course use the join keyword instead if possible. The old syntax might not even work in newer versions of the database.
I can only think of two ways that haven't been given so far. My last three ideas have already been given (boohoo) but I put them here for posterity. I DID think of them without cheating. :-p
Calculate whether B has a match, then provide an extra UNIONed row for the B set to supply the NULL when there is no match.
SELECT A.Id, A.Something, B.Id, B.Whatever, B.SomethingElse
FROM
(
SELECT
A.*,
CASE
WHEN EXISTS (SELECT * FROM B WHERE A.Id = B.Id) THEN 1
ELSE 0
END Which
FROM A
) A
INNER JOIN (
SELECT 1 Which, B.* FROM B
UNION ALL SELECT 0, B* FROM B WHERE 1 = 0
) B ON A.Which = B.Which
AND (
A.Which = 0
OR (
A.Which = 1
AND A.Id = b.Id
)
)
A slightly different take on that same query:
SELECT A.Id, B.Id
FROM
(
SELECT
A.*,
CASE
WHEN EXISTS (SELECT * FROM B WHERE A.Id = B.Id) THEN A.Id
ELSE -1 // a value that does not exist in B
END PseudoId
FROM A
) A
INNER JOIN (
SELECT B.Id PseudoId, B.Id FROM B
UNION ALL SELECT -1, NULL
) B ON A.Which = B.Which
AND A.PseudoId = B.PseudoId
Only for SQL Server specifically. I know, it's really a left join, but it doesn't SAY LEFT in there!
SELECT A.Id, B.Id
FROM
A
OUTER APPLY (
SELECT *
FROM B
WHERE A.Id = B.Id
) B
Get the inner join then UNION the outer join:
SELECT A.Id, B.Id
FROM
A
INNER JOIN B ON A.name = B.name
UNION ALL
SELECT A.Id, NULL
FROM A
WHERE NOT EXISTS (
SELECT *
FROM B
WHERE A.Id = B.Id
)
Use RIGHT JOIN. That's not a LEFT JOIN!
SELECT A.Id, B.Id
FROM
B
RIGHT JOIN A ON B.name = A.name
Just select the B value in a subquery expression (let's hope there's only one B per A). Multiple columns from B can be their own expressions (YUCKO!):
SELECT A.Id, (SELECT TOP 1 B.Id FROM B WHERE A.Id = B.Id) Bid
FROM A
Anyone using Oracle may need some FROM DUAL clauses in any SELECTs that have no FROM.
You could use subqueries, something like:
select a.id
, nvl((select b.id from b where b.name = a.name), "") as bId
from a
you can use oracle + operator for left join :-
SELECT A.id, B.id
FROM A , B
ON A.name = B.name (+)
Find link :-
Oracle "(+)" Operator
SELECT A.id, B.id
FROM A full outer join B
ON A.name = B.name
where A.name is not null
I'm not sure if you just can't use a LEFT JOIN or if you're restricted from using any JOINS at all. But as far as I understand your requirements, an INNER JOIN should work:
SELECT A.id, B.id
FROM A
INNER JOIN B ON A.name = B.name
Simulating left join using pure simple sql:
SELECT A.name
FROM A
where (select count(B.name) from B where A.id = B.id)<1;
In left join there are no lines in B referring A so 0 names in B will refer to the lines in A that dont have a match
+ or A.id = B.id in where clause to simulate the inner join
