Use an EXCEPTION JOIN. The query would be:

SELECT detail.* from detail EXCEPTION JOIN header on header.key = detail.key

Subject: SQL Help finding missing records

I know I can do this with query, but in the spirit of learning - I would
prefer to do this with SQL.

I have two files SLSTRNHDRF - header file and SLSTRAN - Detail
file.....apparently we have some detail records that do not have a
corresponding header record and I want to double check the file and see if
there any more......I thought I could do it by querying the header file
for account / invoice records that do not match account and invoice fields
in the slstran.....but that did not seem to work.....

Suggestions?
