    Hi i do not want to delete consumerID 100 as deleteflag is 0 for one product

    and moreover this is not a home work , but i am trying to do it in a simple way for the below query

    DELETE Table A

    FROM TableA a

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

    WHERE a.ConsumerID IN

    (

    SELECT ConsumerID FROM TableB WHERE DeleteFlag= 1 AND ConsumerID NOT IN (SELECT Consumer_ID FROM Visitor_By_Brand WHERE Delete_Flag =0 )

    )

    Your query as posted here would still delete 100 assuming there is not a record in Visitor_By_Brand where Delete_Flag = 0 for that consumer.
