Join query in sql server 2005?

Answer 1

Join query are basically of three types : 1) Cross Join -- That is use to retrieve data from two tables on a condition (optional), there we get m*n no. of records(m is no of rec in first table and n is the no. of records in another table) 2) Inner Join : we use this join to retrieve values from two tables that satisfies given matching condition : as :: select Product_Category from Product_Detail INNER JOIN Product_Scenerio ON Product_Detail.Product_Id = Product_Detail.Product_Id. Product_Scenerio . 3) Outer Join : this is used in three way: a) Left Outer Join -- it is used to retrieve records from both tables that satisfies given condition including all records from left(First) table whether it do not satisfy condition ...try it practically ** related columns in right table has NULL values in records b) Right Outer Join :: It is used when we want to fetch all records from right(second) table whether that do not match with condition specified with JOIN . ** related columns in right table has NULL values in records c) Full Outer Join :: It is combination of Inner join + left Outer join + right Outer join .Here we get all records from both tables that do not match condition .
