• thanks for your response bro, i tried it works thanks , just make a little bit faster here which will increase the IO opeartion also

    SELECT a.Eid, b.cDocNo

    FROM @a a

    LEFT OUTER JOIN @b-2 b

    ON A.Eid = b.cid AND

    a.DocNo = b.CDocNo

    WHERE EXISTS (SELECT 1 FROM @b-2 c WHERE c.Cid = a.Eid )

    ORDER BY

    a.Eid

    it increases the scan count of the second table 2 and double the logical reads, any other solution bro
