I am trying to do something I've done a million times and it's not working, can anyone tell me why?
I have a table for people who sent in resumes, and it has their email address in it...
I want to find out if any of these people have NOT signed up on the web site. The aspnet_Membership table has all the people who ARE signed up on the web site.
There are 9472 job seekers, with unique email addresses.
This query produces 1793 results:
select j.email from jobseeker j
join aspnet_Membership m on j.email = m.email
This suggests that there should be 7679 (9472-1793) emails of people who are not signed up on the web site. Since 1793 of them DID match, I would expect the rest of them DON'T match... but when I do the query for that, I get nothing!
Why is this query giving me nothing???
select j.email
from jobseeker j
where j.email not in (select email from aspnet_Membership)
I don't know how that could be not working - it basically says "show me all the emails which are IN the jobseeker table, but NOT IN the aspnet_Membership table...
