Question

Having this table

Table 'Items'  itemID itemTitle itemContent 

and this

Table 'MyList'  userID itemID deleted 

how can I select all rows from table ‘Items’ and showing the field ‘deleted’, even if the itemID do not exist in ‘MyList’, given an userID?

Example of the query result:

itemID | itemTitle | deleted | userID ------------------------------------- 1      | Title1    | 1       | 2 2      | Title2    | 0       | 2 3      | Title3    | (null)  | (null) 4      | Title4    | (null)  | (null) 

What would be the query, so that I can get that result?

Thanks

I’m not sure if this is the best way of doing this, but it returns what I was looking for:

select itemID, itemTitle, deleted, userID FROM( SELECT i.id_itemID, i.itemTitle, M.deleted, M.userID FROM     MyList M     right OUTER JOIN Items I ON I.itemID= M.itemID ) as MyTableItems where itemID = 3 or itemID is null
