Bacon is so good by itself that to put it in any other food is an admission of failure. You're basically saying, "I can't make this other food taste good, so I'll throw in bacon."

Query with Missing Foreign Key
Keith Newman 

2 years ago
Good Morning
I have Two tables IncidentTBL and TrailTBL,
The foreign key in the IncidentTBL is the TrailId.  This is populated using a Combo box. Some times users do not complete the combo box because they don't have the information.
When I run a query on the IncidentTBL & the TrailTBL the result omits records where the TrailId is either blank or zero.
What is the best way of overcoming this problem?

Change the link of the query to option2: Select all records from IncidentTBL and only those records from TrailTBL that are matching.

PS. It could be option 3 in your case.  Look for wording to that effect.
