                Subject:        SELECT question.

                I am stuck on a select query and was wondering if someone could help.  
I
                have I've written a database app. that helps me run my business
                (trucking).  I need however to write a query that shows me all of the
                loads that are delivered but not billed (invoiced).  Which means that I
                have to select the loads that are delivered but do not have an entry in
                the INVOICED table -- since an entry is made in the INVOICED table
                whenever a load is billed.

                I know the query below won't work.  Can someone please help me fix it?

                SELECT l.load_no l.date FROM loads l, invoiced i
                WHERE l.dlvr_date > 0
                AND l.load_no != i.load_no


                Thanks,

                Richard
