    I changed the query to be this

    SELECT

    Salesyear

    , complete

    , amount

    FROM

    sales

    WHERE

    customerid = 2

    EXCEPT

    SELECT

    Salesyear

    , complete

    , amount

    FROM

    sales

    WHERE

    customerid = 1

    I expected to see 2 rows but returned 1 only. Not sure why (other than me being thick).

    EXCEPT Returns distinct rows by comparing the results of two queries.

    Given that the last 2 records for client 2 are the same, only one row will be returned
