OMG, i must have been sleeping...
Problem solved...
Many thanks again to both of you!

This problem still remains unsolved:
1st:    In general: The doSelect of subquery throws an exception i don't really 
understand. Isn't it the right way      to specify the columns you want in your 
resultset?

        com.workingdogs.village.DataSetException: Only 1 columns exist!

        =>      
subCriteria.addSelectColumn(AdressenreferenzPeer.KUNDENADRESS_ID);
        similar to: SELECT kundenadress_id FROM adressenreferenz ??

May be you guys could give a hint anyway

Hi again,
at first many thanks to both of you for your quick response!

I hope that Antonis is not feeling offended but i agree with Thomas that the 
problem should be solved by means of the framework and not via SQL-statements 
written by hand.

Unfortunately, although spending the entire morning on this one, i couldn't 
come up with a solution yet.
Thomas, you mentioned that using custom critera would be a good idea. This is 
what i was thinking too, but I don't rely get how the custom subquery and the 
parent query can be combined?

So what i did is that i followed the subquery-way like this:

                Criteria criteria = new Criteria();
                Criteria subCriteria = new Criteria();
                
subCriteria.addSelectColumn(AdressenreferenzPeer.KUNDENADRESS_ID);
                System.out.println(subCriteria.toString());
                results = AdressenreferenzPeer.doSelect(subCriteria);
                
                
                criteria.addNotIn(AdressenreferenzPeer.KUNDENADRESS_ID, 
results);
                criteria.add(KundenadressePeer.KUNDEN_ID, kundeId, 
Criteria.EQUAL);
                criteria.setDistinct();         
                System.out.println(criteria.toString());
                results = KundenadressePeer.doSelect(criteria);
                return results;


1st:    In general: The doSelect of subquery throws an exception i don't really 
understand. Isn't it the right way      to specify the columns you want in your 
resultset?

        com.workingdogs.village.DataSetException: Only 1 columns exist!

        =>      
subCriteria.addSelectColumn(AdressenreferenzPeer.KUNDENADRESS_ID);
        similar to: SELECT kundenadress_id FROM adressenreferenz ??

2nd:    I don't think that this solution does not do the job cause its actually 
two queries instead of on cascaded      one...

3rd:    Thomas could you please give an example how you'd combine query and 
subquery according to this example?

I really appreciate your help!
Many thanks in advance,

Jan

Hm, writing SQL is one of the the things that Torque wants to avoid. One of the 
reasons for this is portability between databases. Though Torque is certainly 
not perfectly portable, it is much better than plain SQL. 
Another reason is that the compiler checks if the columns you use in your query 
is still in your database model (it will not find the relevant constants if a 
column is removed or renamed and the model is regenerated) (of cousre, the 
constants can also be used to build SQL to have the same effect, but this is 
quite a hassle).

So in my eyes, one should think twice before using custom SQL. There are cases 
where it cannot be avoided (see below), but I would think twice before using it.
