If you want to find the one's that don't have a match try:

select id from table1
minus
select id from table2;

Hallo you  DBA'

Can anyone give me a good example on a sql select statement checking if
any value in id field in table one exists in table two's id field?Table two
also contains the corresponding id field but with other field names
besides. Like this

Table 1: Id         Name      Year
Table 2: :Id   City           Country

Thanks in advance

Roland Sköldblom
