With all due respect, this is not classwork. I've been using SQL for over a decade now & have never come across a situation like this (as in approaching from the "wrong" side of an outer join to display values which don't have a join as well as those which do).

I admit that I did leave out one of the joins (to table C), but that's because it's actually unrequired in the example that I gave - hindsight editing of the post would have removed all references to it. I'm using a hardcoded value for the "c_id" column, rather than linking it to the C table.

Thanks
