Rob, thank you for your reply. That did the trick. I had a feeling that
the left outer join was what I needed, but I wasn't thinking clearly last
night to connect with the CASE clauses and checking for null. I had a
vague thought to use COALESCE, but it wasn't clicking when I tried to flesh
it out.

Yes, I need to force myself to use explicit JOIN clauses. Old habits plus
the vast majority of the joins we use are inner joins, hence the "lazy"
style.

Thanks again,
- Dan
