Subqueries
A subquery is a SELECT statement that is embedded in a clause of another SELECT statement.
You can build powerful statements out of simple ones by using subqueries. They can be very
useful when you need to select rows from a table with a condition that depends on the data in the
table itself.
You can place the subquery in a number of SQL clauses:
 WHERE clause
 HAVING clause
 FROM clause
Guidelines for Using Subqueries
 A subquery must be enclosed in parentheses.
 A subquery must appear on the right side of the comparison operator.
 Subqueries cannot contain an ORDER BY clause. You can have only one ORDER BY
clause for a SELECT statement, and if specified it must be the last clause in the main
SELECT statement.
 Two classes of comparison operators are used in subqueries: single-row operators and
multiple-row operators.
Errors with Subqueries
One common error with subqueries is more than one row returned for a single-row subquery.
To correct this error, change the = operator to IN.
