it didn't but it gave me enough of a clue so that this did:
select dancedetails.coupletypes.* 
from   dancedetails.coupletypes
left join dancedata2.couples
on dancedetails.coupletypes.name=dancedata2.couples.name
where dancedata2.couples.name is null;

So tell me - why does a left join work where an inner join refused to?
(have only been sql-ing for about 2 wks)
