| in order to find the issue .. execute your statement with out any condition (without where clause) if rows are not returned Then Execute the query only with first "where" condition if rows are not returned Then Execute the query only with first and second "where" condition if rows are not returned Then ......Till end. You will find the problem as if the issue is due to the Join And / OR due to one of the conditions in your where clause. CheersMIK |
