Subject SQL: Restrict outer join to a subset
Author tickerboo2002
As title, I'm doing a left outer join to a table, but I only want
potential matches with the table from a subset. i.e.

left outer join orders o
on o.client_id=c.client_id

......where o.OrderPlaced < '04/04/2004'

I can include this condition in the where clause, but that results in
it returning zero rows should orders be empty.
