View (SQL Server) Question - Please help!

[Guest]

I have a view that is joining multiple tables. How do I modify this view so
that it also returns when the value is "NULL" for some of the join table
fields???

Any help would be greatly appreciated!!!
Thank you,
-Valerie

SELECT TOP 100 PERCENT dbo.PATIENTMEDICATION.PatientMedicationID,
dbo.MEDICATION.MedicationDS, dbo.MEDICATION.MedicationID,
dbo.DOSAGEUNIT.DosageUnitDS,
dbo.PATIENTMEDICATION.DosageUnitID, dbo.PATIENTMEDICATION.Dosage,
dbo.DURATIONUNIT.DurationUnitDS,
dbo.PATIENTMEDICATION.DurationUnitID,
dbo.PATIENTMEDICATION.Duration, dbo.PATIENTMEDICATION.BegunDT,
dbo.PATIENTMEDICATION.DiscontinuedDT,
dbo.PATIENTMEDICATION.ActiveYN, dbo.PATIENTMEDICATION.VisitID,
dbo.PATIENTMEDICATION.PatientID
FROM dbo.PATIENTMEDICATION INNER JOIN
dbo.MEDICATION ON dbo.PATIENTMEDICATION.MedicationID =
dbo.MEDICATION.MedicationID INNER JOIN
dbo.DOSAGEUNIT ON dbo.PATIENTMEDICATION.DosageUnitID =
dbo.DOSAGEUNIT.DosageUnitID INNER JOIN
dbo.DURATIONUNIT ON
dbo.PATIENTMEDICATION.DurationUnitID = dbo.DURATIONUNIT.DurationUnitID
ORDER BY dbo.PATIENTMEDICATION.VisitID, dbo.PATIENTMEDICATION.ActiveYN DESC,
dbo.PATIENTMEDICATION.PatientMedicationID

Valerie,

Look into using OUTER JOIN instead of INNER JOIN when you want all values
from one table included, even if no matching values are found in the other
table.
