The examples are written for Microsoft SQL Server, but very similar syntax is used in Oracle, MySQL and other databases. If you are tired of writing SQL and want to try a visual tool, you should give Datamartist a try . The diagrams with the SQL examples are actually right from the tool you just have to pick what parts of the Venn diagram you want, and the data is joined for you no code. Joins can be said to be INNER or OUTER joins, and the two tables involved are referred to as LEFT and RIGHT. By combining these two concepts you get all the various types of joins in join land: Inner, left outer, right outer, and the full outer join.
