| Hello,I need to extract data from my DB and filter it on 3 elements. The Db is a hospital DB with patients etc. I have the following select statement:SELECT LASTNAME, NAMEFROM ADMISSIONS ADMISSIONS, EVENTDATA EVENTDATA, EVENTS EVENTS, PATIENTS PATIENTS, PICISDATA PICISDATAWHERE PATIENTS.PATIENTDBOID = ADMISSIONS.PATIENTDBOID AND PICISDATA.ADMISSIONDBOID = ADMISSIONS.ADMISSIONDBOID AND EVENTDATA.EVENTDBOID = EVENTS.EVENTDBOID AND EVENTDATA.PICISDATADBOID = PICISDATA.PICISDATADBOID ANDEVENTDATA.EVENTDBOID NOT IN (66188362240347002999,66000000000049000000,66188362240347002999)This returns too many rows for me. What I would like is to return the name of each patient who does not have the 3 eventdboids in their record. What this returns is the name of the Patients and lists the dboids. Any ideas? Is there a better way to filter out infomation |

| I guess you need all those tables to get from Patients to EventData, huh?. If that's the case, try slappingGroup by LastName, Nameat the end of your statement.Be One with the OptimizerTG |
