Thank you Kumar for replying.
In my universe, there are options available to set left or right outer joins. This is even when the ANSI92 parameter is not introduced in the universe parameter list. These options are in the form of check boxes under the table(s) on the pop up window where you set a join. It lets me check on either outer join box (left or right) but the outer join doesn’t seem to work, that is, it generates a result set which is essentially a result of an inner join.
How about efficiency of an outer join between an I table and a text table with I-table having a few million records.
I under decision to set a join depends on the requirement but is there a way to avoid an outer join and still get all records (matched and mis matched)?
Thank you.
