Try Again: Outer Join with SUBSTR

Re: Try Again: Outer Join with SUBSTR
In what way is it not working ? Are you getting an error message, or not getting the results you expect. In the latter case, this may be because you are cancelling the outer join by not echoing it through all the necessary points in the WHERE clause. e.g. (substr(pcmacaddress,10,2) || substr(smarts.pcmacaddress,13,2) || substr(smarts.pcmacaddress,16,2) || substr(smarts.pcmacaddress,19,2) || substr(smarts.pcmacaddress,22,2) || substr(smarts.pcmacaddress,25,2))(+)=lisa.macaddress makes smarts the deficient table, but smarts.giltbis = '2100-01-01-00.00.00.00' and eliminates the outer-ness of the join, and loses any appended rows. similarly with: kompsys.system = syspers.system(+) and syspers.giltbis = '2100-01-01-00.00.00.00' and the join to syspers ceases to be outer because of the literal comparison.
