I am trying to write a query that selects all the mis_key that is not in the subquery. The left join query is working but when nested it comes out blank. Here is the query:
select *
from [TLC NEW Inv. Anal.].dbo.['Home Decor$']
WHERE NOT EXISTS
(SELECT *
FROM [TLC New].DBO.['Fabric or basket accessory$'] LEFT JOIN [TLC NEW Inv. Anal.].DBO.['Home Decor$']
ON [TLC New].DBO.['Fabric or basket accessory$'].[Item #]=[TLC NEW Inv. Anal.].DBO.['Home Decor$'].mis_key)
