Here's what I have (simplified)
SELECT t1.fid, t1.t1_data, t2.vid, t2.t2_data, t3.t3_data
FROM t1, t2, t3
WHERE t1.fid = X
AND t2.vid = Y
AND t3.fid = t1.fid
AND t3.vid = t2.vid
Now, I discover that the record in t3 may not always exist, so somehow I
want to do an outer join...
SELECT t1.fid, t1.t1_data, t2.vid, t2.t2_data, t3.t3_data
FROM t1, t2, OUTER JOIN t3 ON (t3.fid = t1.fid AND t3.vid = t2.vid)
WHERE t1.fid = X
AND t2.vid = Y
But I get the statement that "t1 is not part of JOIN"
Is there some way that I can merge t1 and t2 together, or do I have to do a
subselect (ugh) as the only viable alternative?
Any ideas is appreciated...
