Hey! guys!
I wanted a little help on the following : ..
Scenario:
I have 2 tables : one task and the other tasksequence
desc task : (primary key taskId, varchar taskdesc)
desc tasksequence (primary key (taskId,milestoneId))
Now the query I want to form should give me a list of all taskIds in table task
excluding the taskIds frm tasksequence..( a result set of >15 rows(taskIds))
Can somebody help me with this ??...I have developed a quick fix for this :
-- capture the resultset of all the taskIds in tasksequence , as a string
--and then : "select taskId from task where taskId not in (taskIdsString)"
Its working , but is the same not possible with left/right or natural Joins??..i
believe mysql doesn't allow for sub queries (making my task a little painful)
Is there another more clean way to do this ??...
Hoping for a response at the earliest!! :)
Thanks and regds,
Ash
