SQL Cheat Sheet: JOIN statements

Joins

Topic Syntax Description Example

The CROSS JOIN is used to generate a paired
SELECT column_name(s) FROM table1 CROSS SELECT DEPT_ID_DEP, LOCT_ID FROM
Cross Join JOIN table2;
combination of each row of the first table with DEPARTMENTS CROSS JOIN LOCATIONS;
each row of the second table.
You can use an inner join in a SELECT select E.F_NAME,E.L_NAME, JH.START_DATE
SELECT column_name(s) FROM table1 INNER
from EMPLOYEES as E INNER JOIN
Inner Join JOIN table2 ON table1.column_name = statement to retrieve only the rows that satisfy JOB_HISTORY as JH on E.EMP_ID=JH.EMPL_ID
table2.column_name; WHERE condition; the join conditions on every specified table. where E.DEP_ID ='5';
select
SELECT column_name(s) FROM table1 LEFT The LEFT OUTER JOIN will return all records E.EMP_ID,E.L_NAME,E.DEP_ID,D.DEP_NAME
Left Outer Join OUTER JOIN table2 ON table1.column_name from the left side table and the matching records from EMPLOYEES AS E LEFT OUTER JOIN
= table2.column_name WHERE condition; from the right table. DEPARTMENTS AS D ON
E.DEP_ID=D.DEPT_ID_DEP;
select
SELECT column_name(s) FROM table1 RIGHT The RIGHT OUTER JOIN returns all records from E.EMP_ID,E.L_NAME,E.DEP_ID,D.DEP_NAME
Right Outer
OUTER JOIN table2 ON table1.column_name the right table, and the matching records from from EMPLOYEES AS E RIGHT OUTER JOIN
Join = table2.column_name WHERE condition; DEPARTMENTS AS D ON
the left table.
E.DEP_ID=D.DEPT_ID_DEP;
The FULL OUTER JOIN clause results in the select E.F_NAME,E.L_NAME,D.DEP_NAME from
SELECT column_name(s) FROM table1 FULL inclusion of rows from two tables. If a value is EMPLOYEES AS E FULL OUTER JOIN
Full Outer Join OUTER JOIN table2 ON table1.column_name
missing when rows are joined, that value is null DEPARTMENTS AS D ON
= table2.column_name WHERE condition;
in the result table. E.DEP_ID=D.DEPT_ID_DEP;

SELECT column_name(s) FROM table1 T1, A self join is regular join but it can be used to SELECT B.* FROM EMPLOYEES A JOIN
Self Join EMPLOYEES B ON A.MANAGER_ID =
table1 T2 WHERE condition; joined with itself. B.MANAGER_ID WHERE A.EMP_ID = 'E1001';

Joins in MySQL using phpMyAdmin

SELECT column_name(s) FROM table1 LEFT

OUTER JOIN table2 ON table1.column_name select E.F_NAME,E.L_NAME,D.DEP_NAME from
= table2.column_name WHERE condition EMPLOYEES AS E LEFT OUTER JOIN
DEPARTMENTS AS D ON
UNION E.DEP_ID=D.DEPT_ID_DEP
The UNION operator is used to combine the
Full Outer Join SELECT column_name(s) UNION
FROM table1 result-set of two or more SELECT statements.
RIGHT OUTER JOIN table2 select E.F_NAME,E.L_NAME,D.DEP_NAME
ON table1.column_name = from EMPLOYEES AS E
table2.column_name RIGHT OUTER JOIN DEPARTMENTS AS D ON
WHERE condition E.DEP_ID=D.DEPT_ID_DEP
