I have two tables. One with names and one for excluding certain names. Exclude-table contains the uid for the name excluded.
If I want to see which names has been excluded, this query does the job: Select n.uid, n.name from names_tables n, exclude WHERE n.uid = exclude.n_uid But if I want to select all names, but leave out the ones that are in the "exclude"-table, I thought this would do it, but no. Select n.uid, n.name from names_tables n, exclude WHERE n.uid != exclude.n_uid It has something to do with the != thingy...
