Hi @Niru,

 

This could be achieved with a series of join tools in conjunction with union tools to create the relevant left and right joins whilst querying your database with the standard input tool:

I've attached my workflow for you to download if needed!

 

Kind regards,

@Jonathan-Sherma, Thanks a lot for your reply, sorry for my late reply,

 

im pulling directly data from sql server. Here each table has millions of records. With Query1 matching records i need to pull data from other tables. Is there any way i can pull only matching from other tables without using join ( if I use join it is taking more than 4 or 5 hours to pull the data other tables).kindly help me 

 

Thanks in Advance

Niru

In this step, you create the union query by copying and pasting the SQL statements.
  1. On the Create tab, in the Queries group, click Query Design.
  2. On the Design tab, in the Query group, click Union. ...
  3. Click the tab for the first select query that you want to combine in the union query.
Procedure
  1. To combine two or more SELECT statements to form a single result table, use the set operators: UNION, EXCEPT or INTERSECT. ...
  2. To keep all duplicate rows when combining result tables, specify the ALL keyword with the set operator clause.

As you can see, joining three tables in SQL isn't as hard as it sounds. In fact, you can join as many tables as you like – the idea behind it is the same as joining only two tables. It's very helpful to take a look at the data midstep Find cheats for gun blood at Scream Reality and imagine that the tables you've already joined are one table.
