I am trying to create a query that will accept a date from the user and display information from two tables based on this date. This works for all of my tests except my last test. My last test, I enter a date that should return a record that only exists in the expmast table and does not exist in the expbycc table. When I enter the date to try and get this record to be returned, it tells me no records have been found. I know this is because in my where, i have an AND that checks if M.ExpNum = C.ExpNUm which isn;t true for this record because it only exists in one table. I can not figure out how to get this query to work. Any help/advice is greatly appreciated. Below is my script, followed by the table structures used for this query, thank you.
Script:
ACCEPT Date PROMPT 'Enter a date:';
SELECT M.ExpNum, EDate, IsCash, StoreCode, CashAmt, CType, CCNum, Amt
FROM ExpMast M, ExpByCc C
WHERE EDate = to_date('&Date','mm-dd-yy')
AND M.ExpNum = C.ExpNum;
Tables:
CREATE TABLE EXPMAST
(ExpNum NUMBER(2,0) NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
EDate DATE,
IsCash VARCHAR2(1),
StoreCode VARCHAR2(4),
CONSTRAINT fk_STORE_EXPMAST FOREIGN KEY (StoreCode)
REFERENCES STORE (Code)
);
CREATE TABLE ExpByCC
(ExpNum NUMBER(2,0) NOT NULL,
CType VARCHAR2(1) NOT NULL,
CCNum VARCHAR2(16) NOT NULL,
Amt DECIMAL(5,2),
CONSTRAINT fk_CRCARD_ExpByCC FOREIGN KEY (CType, CCNum)
REFERENCES CRCARD (CType, CCNum),
CONSTRAINT fk_EXPMAST_ExpByCC FOREIGN KEY (ExpNum)
REFERENCES EXPMAST (ExpNum),
CONSTRAINT pk_ExpByCC PRIMARY KEY (ExpNum, CType, CCNum)
);
