    Hi All

    The below query is (Old STYLE) working fine and also gived the desired result

    but the second query gives only the matching records only(like inner Join)

    Need help to solve this problem

    1. select h.salesrep_Name ,disp_code,description,count(act_status)

    from  modifiedcalldata m ,histdata h, dispositions d

    where m.prog_sol_number =* h.prog_sol_number and

    m.act_status =* d.disp_code  and month(calldate) = 3 

    group by h.salesrep_Name ,disp_code,description --WITH ROLLUP

    order by h.salesrep_Name ,disp_code,description

    GO

     

    2. select h.salesrep_Name ,disp_code,description,count(act_status)

    from  modifiedcalldata m

    right outer join histdata h      on m.prog_sol_number = h.prog_sol_number

    right outer join dispositions d  on  d.disp_code = m.act_status

    where month(calldate) = 3 

    group by h.salesrep_Name ,disp_code,description --WITH ROLLUP

    order by h.salesrep_Name ,disp_code,description

    GO

    Which table column "calldate" belongs to?

    Which table is main in this query?

    CallDate belongs to Modifiedcalldata

    So,

    select h.salesrep_Name ,disp_code,description,count(act_status)

    from modifiedcalldata m

    LEFT outer join histdata h on m.prog_sol_number = h.prog_sol_number

    LEFT outer join dispositions d on d.disp_code = m.act_status

    where month(calldate) = 3

    group by h.salesrep_Name ,disp_code,description

    order by h.salesrep_Name ,disp_code,description

    must work

    My guess would be

    SELECT h.salesrep_Name,d.disp_code,[description],count(m.act_status)

    FROM histdata h

    CROSS JOIN dispositions d

    LEFT OUTER JOIN modifiedcalldata m

      ON m.prog_sol_number = h.prog_sol_number

      AND m.act_status = d.disp_code

      AND month(m.calldate) = 3

    GROUP BY h.salesrep_Name, d.disp_code, [description] --WITH ROLLUP

    ORDER BY h.salesrep_Name, d.disp_code, [description]

    but really need ddl and an explanation of what is required

    Far away is close at hand in the images of elsewhere.
