RE: NOT LOGIC

Thanks Chris. I tried this but it returned many matches where it should have. I 
will try one of the other techniques I've seen today too.

How about something like this:

select
 file1.astate
 file1.acity
from
 File1 join
 file2 on
  FILE1.ASTATE <> FILE2.XRSTATE and
  FILE1.ACITY <> FILE2.XRCIT
group by
 file1.astate
 file1.acity

Can someone give me an example of how to do the following with SQL on
iSeries? (STRSQL)



I mean, I would like an example of the syntax to accomplish this...





Files:      LIBRARY1/FILE1,    LIBRARY2/FILE2



Fields:   FILE1.ASTATE,            FILE1.ACITY

Fields:   FILE2.XRSTATE,           FILES2.XRCITY





Request: Select the records from FILE1 where FILE1.ASTATE <>
FILE2.XRSTATE and FILE1.ACITY <> FILE2.XRCIT  and display distinct
records only  Grouped by FILE1.ASTATE, FILE1.ACITY





This seems like such a simple thing but for some reason I cannot get the
syntax right today.



Thanks!
