Bob writes "Hi, I have the following problem.
One table with students.
One table with courses.
One table with subscriptions.

Now I want a resultset that contains a list of all student names with a boolean wether they are subscribed to a certain course. (is it 'subscribed'? excuse my English).

This is a very interesting problem that I finally solved for SQL server: For example if you want the list for CourseID = 2:

SELECT Students.*, Subscriptions.SubscriptionID FROM Students LEFT OUTER JOIN Subscriptions ON
Students.StudentID = Subscriptions.StudentID AND Subscriptions.CourseID = 2

Now here's the catch: this doesn't work for Access databases. The last part of the SQL statement is simply not allowed.

Dear Guru
I know that you are more of a SQL server person, but I really need this query to work in Access. Do you have some brilliant alternative SQL code for me?"
