Question

The following query uses join operation, i want the same query to execute without using join operation. Is it possible to do so? If yes than how can i do it?

select jname, jcode from heardt inner join judge ON heardt.jud1 = jcode

The reason i am trying to do this is because i am using odbc connection for mysql and join operations are not getting executed at all as web page is loading for infinitely long and not giving any output. That is the reason why i want to try without using join operation

Answer 1

I don’t know your rationale, I find JOINS much easier to read but you can replace them by joining (no pun intented) the tables in the where clause.

select  jname
        , jcode 
from    heardt 
        , judge 
where   heardt.jud1 = judge.jcode
