List of records in table A without corresponding record in table B

Recommended Posts

Hey all,

I'd like to create a list of records in one table that do not have a corresponding (join?) record in another table.

I have one table called 'members' that has a MemberID field.

A second table called 'listings' holds records that are joined by MemberID.

Is there an "easy" way to get a list of records in the 'members' table that DO NOT have a corresponding record in the 'listings' table?

Thanks for any help...

Thanks for the advice Barand...but your version does not give any results. (The other version produces verifiably true results.)

However, another problem:

"My" version of the query works fine on my local host, but when I upload it to a hosting server it produces an error:

[code]
You have an error in your SQL syntax. Check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near 'select distinct MemberID from pppx_listings)' at line 1
[/code]

Very strange. Any insights?
