Ok...here's the final solution.
(Had to watch some football before I could sort it out :o)

select       p.mls_number
from         properties p
left join    properties_copy pc
on           pc.mls_number = p.mls_number
where        pc.mls_number is null
and          p.mls = 'hmls'
and          p.mls_number is not null

That last line had to be added because there were some
records with no mls_number that I didn't know about earlier.

I swear it seems like this was one of the first queries
I tried.  But, whatever, it works!

Thanks for the help, everyone!

Rick

  Ah, then reverse the JOIN (unless MySQL handles this differently) if 
you want only the ones IN _copy:

SELECT pc.mls_number
FROM properties_copy pc LEFT OUTER JOIN
      properties p ON pc.mls = p.mls
WHERE p.mls IS NULL
      AND pc.mls = 'hmls'
