Efficient MINUS relacement
Posted by: Simon Cranmer

Dear All,

I am wondering if there is a more efficient way to rewrite a MINUS union select I have. So far my only solution is to have a left join and exclude the NULL columns. E.g.

SELECT a.id
FROM a
LEFT JOIN b ON b.id = a.id
WHERE b.id IS NULL


Thanks in advance,

Simon.
