Question

i need an sql stament that will give me something like this where if a field is null it doesn’t do the join

SELECT AdminID,tblapartments.NameNo, tblgarages.GarageID, tblclients.Name FROM tbladmin,tblclients,tblgarages,tblapartments WHERE tblclients.ClientID =tbladmin.ClientID AND
IF (tbladmin.ApartmentID != null)
{
tblapartments.ApartmentID = tbladmin.ApartmentID
}
AND If(tbladmin.GarageID != Null)
{
tblgarges.GarageID = tbladmin.GarageID
}

Answer 1

Unless I’m missing something, this should just be an outer join.

SELECT 
    AdminID,
    tblapartments.NameNo, 
    tblgarages.GarageID, 
    tblclients.Name 
FROM 
    tbladmin INNER JOIN tblclients ON tbladmin.ClientID = tblclients.ClientID
    LEFT OUTER JOIN tblgarages ON tbladmin.GarageID = tblgarages.GarageID
    LEFT OUTER JOIN tblapartments ON tbladmin.ApartmentId = tblapartments.ApartmentID
