The SQL RIGHT JOIN returns all rows from the right table, even if there are no matches in the left table. This means that if the ON clause matches 0 (zero) records in left table, the join will still return a row in the result.but with NULL in each column from left table.
This means that a right join returns all the values from the right table, plus matched values from the left table or NULL in case of no matching join predicate.
The basic syntax of RIGHT JOIN is as follows:
SELECT table1.column1, table2.column2... FROM table1 RIGHT JOIN table2 ON table1.common_filed = table2.common_field; |
Consider following two tables, (a) CUSTOMERS table is as follows:
+----+----------+-----+-----------+----------+ | ID | NAME | AGE | ADDRESS | SALARY | +----+----------+-----+-----------+----------+ | 1 | Ramesh | 32 | Ahmedabad | 2000.00 | | 2 | Khilan | 25 | Delhi | 1500.00 | | 3 | kaushik | 23 | Kota | 2000.00 | | 4 | Chaitali | 25 | Mumbai | 6500.00 | | 5 | Hardik | 27 | Bhopal | 8500.00 | | 6 | Komal | 22 | MP | 4500.00 | | 7 | Muffy | 24 | Indore | 10000.00 | +----+----------+-----+-----------+----------+ |
(b) Another table is ORDERS as follows:
+-----+---------------------+-------------+--------+ | OID | DATE | ID | AMOUNT | +-----+---------------------+-------------+--------+ | 102 | 2009-10-08 00:00:00 | 3 | 3000 | | 100 | 2009-10-08 00:00:00 | 3 | 1500 | | 101 | 2009-11-20 00:00:00 | 2 | 1560 | | 103 | 2008-05-20 00:00:00 | 4 | 2060 | +-----+---------------------+-------------+--------+ |
Now let us join these two tables using RIGHT JOIN as follows:
SQL> SELECT ID, NAME, AMOUNT, DATE FROM CUSTOMERS RIGHT JOIN ORDERS ON CUSTOMERS.ID = ORDERS.CUSTOMER_ID; |
This would produce following result:
+------+---------+--------+---------------------+ | ID | NAME | AMOUNT | DATE | +------+---------+--------+---------------------+ | 3 | kaushik | 3000 | 2009-10-08 00:00:00 | | 3 | kaushik | 1500 | 2009-10-08 00:00:00 | | 2 | Ramesh | 1560 | 2009-11-20 00:00:00 | | 4 | kaushik | 2060 | 2008-05-20 00:00:00 | +------+---------+--------+---------------------+ |
