Subtraction one set from anothe set in MySQL Posted by roger3333 (roger3333), 6 December 2002 Hi,Does anyone know in MySQL, how to exclude one set of record from another set, which is similar to 'NOT IN' in some SQL language. e.g: select * from A where A.ID NOT IN ( select ID from Table B ) Thanks a lot. Roger Posted by admin (Graham Ellis), 7 December 2002 Join and look for NULL should do it ...select * from A left join B on A.id = B.id where B.id is NULL; (See "Checking for values not present in a table" in MySQL by Paul DuBois, http://www.wellho.net/book/0-7357-0921-1.html Posted by roger3333 (roger3333), 7 December 2002 Cool!It works!
