SQL Unmatched records Question

Hi again,

I have two tables in an Oracle database and I want to display all the records in one table which are NOT in the other table. Let me explain using the schema below:

Seats(SeatID) which ranges from 1 to 10. {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 10} SoldSeats(FlightID, SeatID) which defines which seats have been sold for a particular flight.

So for example, if seats 1,2,3 have been sold for FlightID 100 then I would want it to return

100 4
100 5
100 6
100 7
100 8
100 9
100 10

But if a seat has been sold in another Flight, then it shouldnt affect Flight 100's results. So what is the SQL Query to do something like this?

Thanks,
