Help!
I have a query that runs fine with 2 outer joins, but I am using "*=" syntax and this won't work for SQL 2005.

I am replacing with 'LEFT OUTER JOIN'... I can get it to work okay for first join, but not when I add the second

Any idea

Josephine

Nothing can be advised based on currently provided information. We need to get an idea of how your data is and what you're trying to achieve before giving a solution. So can you please post the involved tables' structures along with some sample data and output you're trying to achieve?

Try this

SELECT i.namelong AS AMC_FULL_NAME,
s.acqdate AS FORECLOSURE_ACQ_DT,
m.ns_acqdate AS DATE_OF_RELEASE,
m.ns_conphon AS SERVICER_PHONE,
0 AS TOTAL_AMT_DELQ
from city m
left join
country i
on
m.deptno = i.code1
left join
state s
on
m.uniq_id = s.muniq_id
where
i.cd_type = 'dept'
