Hi Team,
I am trying to build a query on my table to get a specific data result.
I have a table like below with below data:
SQL
CREATE TABLE tbl_Rate
(
ID INT IDENTITY(1,1),
DateLoad DATETIME,
BaseCur VARCHAR(100),
RateCur VARCHAR(10),
Rate NUMERIC(15,4)
)
GO

INSERT INTO tbl_Rate VALUES
('06 Mar 2014','GBP','INR',101.64),
('06 Mar 2014','GBP','ATS',101.64),
('06 Mar 2014','GBP','RBC',101.64),
('06 Mar 2014','GBP','TBC',101.64),
('06 Mar 2014','GBP','JIR',101.64),
('05 Mar 2014','GBP','INR',101.64),
('05 Mar 2014','GBP','ATS',101.64),
('05 Mar 2014','GBP','RBC',101.64),
('05 Mar 2014','GBP','TBC',101.64);
GO

This table contains the data date wise like 06 Mar and 05 Mar. I need to build a query to get the extra row for 06 Mar like below.
ID	DateLoad	                BaseCur	RateCur	Rate	
5	2014-03-06 00:00:00.000	        GBP	JIR	101.6400	

The constraint is to build using Joins. Avoid result sets to work up with data like below:
SQL
SELECT * FROM
(SELECT * FROM tbl_Rate WHERE DateLoad = '06 Mar 2014') N LEFT JOIN
(SELECT * FROM tbl_Rate WHERE DateLoad = '05 Mar 2014') E ON N.RateCur = E.RateCur
WHERE E.RateCur is NULL



Thanks

What is the reason for the "constraint"? Is this a homework assignment?

I am trying it myself as a process of learning

On the chance that it is not a homework assignment, this will get you the same result without the subqueries:

select * from
tbl_Rate n LEFT JOIN tbl_Rate e ON  N.RateCur = E.RateCur
	and n.DateLoad = '06 Mar 2014' and e.DateLoad = '05 Mar 2014'
where 
    n.DateLoad = '06 Mar 2014' and e.DateLoad is NULL

Thanks, it worked. Just want to know one thing why it is required to put the dateload as 6th Mar in where cluase also ?

Because without it, you get that one and the '05 mar 2014' lines - which you don't want.
