join 方式
（1) cross join
参与select语句所有表的的所有行的笛卡尔乘积
select au_lname ,title
from authors cross join titiles
outer join 对参与join的两个表有主从之分，处理方式以主表的每条数据去match 从属表的列，合乎条件的数据是我们所要的答案，不合乎条件的也是我们要的答案，只不过哪些从属表选取的列将被添上null。
(2) left join
左边的为主表，右边为从属表
select a.cust_id ,b.order_date,b.tot_ant
from customer a left join sales b
on (a.cust_id =b.cust_id and b.order_date>''1996/10/15'')
可以写为
select a.cust_id,b.order_date,b.tot_ant
from custom a
left join (select * from sales where order_date>''1996/10/15'') b
on a.cust_id =b.cust_id
(3) right join
左边的表为从属表，右边的表为主表
(4) self join
self join 常用在同一表内不同数据间对同一列的比较
select a.emp_no,a.emp_name,b.emp_no,b.emp_name,a.date_hired
from employee a
join employee b
on (a.emp_no!=b.emp_no and a.date_hired=b.date_hired)
order by a.date_hired
这样会重复数据，只要加上一句 and a.emp_name>b.emp_name
(5) full join
不仅列出符合条件的数据，两边未符合join条件的数据也会一并列出。哪些未符合join条件的数据如果在select列中无法得到对应的值则填上null
select a.cust_id,b.tot_amt
from customer a full join sales b
on a.cust_id=b.cust_id
有表
id ic name amount
I * *
c
i
c
i
i
要求结果为
ic name amount ic name amount
i c
i c
i
i
select aaa.*,bbb.*
from ( select (select count(id) from aa as b where (b.id<a.id) and (ic=''i'')) as newid, * from aa a where ic=''i'') aaa
full join
(select (select count(id) from aa as b where b.id<a.id and ic=''c'') as newid,* from
aa a where ic=''c'') bbb
on aaa.newid=bbb.newid
order by aaa.name
6.使用 HASH 和 MERGE 联接提示
此示例在 authors、titleauthors 和 titles 表之间建立三表联接，以生成一个作者及其著作的列表。查询优化器使用 MERGE 联接将 authors 和 titleauthors (A x TA) 联接在一起。然后，将 authors 和 titleauthors MERGE 联接 (A x TA) 的结果与 titles 表进行 HASH 联结以生成 (A x TA) x T。
重要 指定联接提示后，要执行 INNER JOIN 时 INNER 关键字不再为可选，而必须显式说明。
USE pubs
SELECT SUBSTRING((RTRIM(a.au_fname) + '' '' + LTRIM(a.au_lname)), 1, 25)
AS Name, SUBSTRING(t.title, 1, 20) AS Title
FROM authors a INNER MERGE JOIN titleauthor ta
ON a.au_id = ta.au_id INNER HASH JOIN titles t
ON t.title_id = ta.title_id
ORDER BY au_lname ASC, au_fname ASC
下面是结果集：

(7)Inner Join
Inner Join 逻辑运算符返回满足第一个（顶端）输入与第二个（底端）输入联接的每一行。
