Many thanks in advance for anyone that can help me write this qry:

To summarise - we have a database that links components to services. Components can have a 1 to many relationship with services. The components are held in a table:

dbo.components

compID compName compType
1 srv1 1
2 srv2 1
3 srv3 1

We also have a services table which hold all our various services we own:

dbo.services

svcID svcName
1052 svc1
1053 svc2
1054 svc3

We then have a tbl that shows the links between components and services

dbo.compUses

svcID compID
1052 310
1052 400
1053 122
1256 134

I would like to find out through the qry what components are currently NOT linked to a service. This will allow me to find out what components have no relationships.

This is in SQL2005.

Have I explained this well enough? Any help would be much appreciated!

[code]Select c.CompID, c.CompName, c.CompType
from components c
LEFT JOIN compUses u
on c.compID = u.compID
Where u.compID Is NULL
[/code]
