Is there a way to create a query which compares two result sets of results?
for example the result set of my first select statement is 7,1,8 and the second result set is 7,1,9..is there a query wherein i can compare the two results? i just wanted to reveal that there is a diffrence between the two..

thank you..

insert the result of both select statement into a separate temp table and use FULL OUTER JOIN to compare
