select * from Tab1 t1 join Tab2 t2 on t1.col2 = t2.col2 No, you're never too old to Yak'n'Roll if you're too young to die. |

That's an IF without any action taken for true or false.What should be the output in your example? No, you're never too old to Yak'n'Roll if you're too young to die. |

Now we are coming closer...What is the meaning of "But it does not work"?Any error message that can point us in any direction? No, you're never too old to Yak'n'Roll if you're too young to die. |

Dear Sir,EXISTS always retuns true why ? When there is no Data. |
