--MS SQL SERVER
WE CAN DISPLAY RECORDS BY USING 9 JOINS
SELECT TBL1.COLUMN1,TBL2.COLUMN2,---------,TBL10.COLUMN10
FROM TBL1 INNER JOIN TBL2 ON TBL1.ID=TBL2.ID
INNER JOIN TBL3 ON TBL1.ID=TBL3.ID
----
----
----
INNER JOIN TBL10 ON TBL1.ID=TBL10.ID
----------------------------------------
--WE CAN ALSO DISPLAY THE RECORDS WITH OUT USE JOINS
SELECT TBL1.COLUMN1,TBL2.COLUMN2,---------,TBL10.COLUMN10
FROM TBL1,TBLE2,--------,TBL10
WHERE TBL1.ID=TBL2.ID OR TBL1.ID=TBL3.ID OR
----
----
----
TBL1.ID=TBL10.ID
--WE MUST USE WHERE CLAUSE OTHER WISE WE GET Cartesian product.
--------------------------------------------------
WE CAN'T JOIN DIFFERENT TABLES OF COLUMNS BY USING UNION
BECAUSE UNION COMBINES THE TWO OR MORE RESULT SETS
(IT MEANS ROWS)
DIFFERENCE BETWEEN JOIN & UNION
-- JOIN COMBINES TWO OR MORE THE COLUMNS
-- UNION COMBINES TWO OR MORE ROWS
