If I have two tables (TABLEA, TABLEB) that have the same format, and I want
to retrieve all the rows where a combination of two columns don't match,
would that be a union join? If so, how is that specified? Here's what I
have:

TABLEA and TABLE have the format of SKU, name and category. A SKU could
exist in multiple categories.

TABLEA
123, NAME1, 1001
456, NAME2, 1002
123, NAME1, 1002
789, NAME3, 1004

TABLEB
001, SOMETHING, 1002
123, NAME1, 1003
456, NAME2, 1002
123, NAME1, 1002

I want to retrieve 123, NAME1, 1003 because that's the one that has a
different category. I don't want to retrieve SKU 456, 789, or 001.
Hmmm...maybe I need to match on SKU with a subselect for that SKU not having
that category?

Thanks!
