    Hi friends

    How to Exclude Records using join . I usually do not in

    Example: I have a Table A and Table B

    I want to exclude all the loans from table A where Table B has condition with COLUMN_B = "Y"

    example In not in : select * from TableA where ColumnA not in ( Select * from TableB where ColumnA='Y')

    Thanks,

    Komal

    Probably something like this:

    SELECT *

    FROM TableA a

    INNER JOIN TableB b ON a.LoanID = b.LoanID

    WHERE b.ColumnA <> 'Y'

    My thought question: Have you ever been told that your query runs too fast?

    My advice:
    INDEXing a poor-performing query is like putting sugar on cat food. Yeah, it probably tastes better but are you sure you want to eat it?
    The path of least resistance can be a slippery slope. Take care that fixing your fixes of fixes doesn't snowball and end up costing you more than fixing the root cause would have in the first place.
