Question

I’m converting an app to use SQL Server 2008 that is currently using SQLite. How would I do the following view in SQL Server 2008? I can’t seem to figure out the syntax for calling multiple tables:

CREATE VIEW new_mimetypes AS
    SELECT
        DISTINCT fd.mimetype AS 'newMimetype'
    FROM
        files_detail AS fd
    WHERE
        NOT EXISTS (
            SELECT
                m.mimetype
            FROM
                mimetypes AS m
            WHERE
                fd.mimetype = m.mimetype
        )

[EDIT]

Nevermind. SQL Server Management Studio was complaining about syntax errors but it still took the SQL. That’s what I get for thinking the IDE new what would work!

Answer 1

That syntax looks correct, are you getting an error?
