I'm trying to form a select statement that will match up all relevent data
from a database for a trouble-ticket system. The select statement below is
the only way I can figure out how to do it. However, the last line " AND
action.request_id=request.id" worries me, because what if there are no
actions yet? Even if there are no actions, I still want to display
everything and just leave the action section blank. Is there a way to do
this?
Thanks
