SQL SERVER – Grouping JOIN Clauses In SQL

I always enjoy writing and reading articles about JOIN Clauses. One of my friend and the best ColdFusion Expert Ben Nadel has written good article about SQL JOINs. There are few interesting comments as well at the end of article.

“JOIN grouping is pretty powerful and can get you out of those sticky situations that involve mixed table relationship rules. ” Ben Nadel – Grouping JOIN Clauses In SQL

  • Three Types OUTER Joins are available
    1. Left Outer
    2. Righ Outer
    3. Full Outer

    I am going to give small example to explain this
    Table 1 Name – tblStudent
    Columns
    ID – Primary Key
    Name – Not Allow Null
    CityId – Foreign Key Refered ID Column in the City Table
    Allows Null
    Data

    Id Name CityId
    1 Russel 1
    2 Mike NULL

    Table 2 Name – tblCity
    Columns
    ID – Primary Key
    Name – Not Allow Null
    Data
    Id Name
    1 Portland
    2 Seattle

    LEFT OUTER QUERY RESULT
    ————————
    Id Name CityId Id Name
    1 Russel 1 1 Portland
    2 Mike NULL NULL NULL

    RIGHT OUTER QUERY RESULT
    ————————-
    Id Name CityId Id Name
    1 Russel 1 1 Portland
    NULL NULL NULL 2 Seattle

    FULL OUTER QuERY RESULT
    ————————-
    Id Name CityId Id Name
    1 Russel 1 1 Portland
    2 Mike NULL NULL NULL
    NULL NULL NULL 2 Seattle

    Hope it explained you clearly

  • I need to join field xyz in 2 tables. In Table 1, xyz is char 16 and in Table 2 xyz is char 17. I can not change the field size in either table. There is one more leading space in Table 2 which cause no data to join together. Any suggestions on how to join them?

    @Cy

    Can you please more details please,

    1. Are you trying to join two columns, meaning concatinating for ex :
    tabA : cola = example
    tabB : colb = example1

    concatination :cola+colb = exampleexample1
    Are you trying for this ? This should be no problem !

    2. Are you trying to join two tables, using join operator.

    select * from tableA , join tableB on cola.tableA= colb.tableB

    Are you trying to do this ? Give me a sample column values from both the tables and I will try to write script.

    Thanks,
    Imran.

  • Example 2 was my issue and I figured out I can do select * from tableA, tableB on xyz = (‘ ‘ + xyz)
