Oh, I actually thought that it was the behavior you wanted, Gary.

On the example you supplied you have an order on June , the 29th and it doesn't
appear on the result you showed.
You wanted this row do appear as an NULL delivery?

Just try replacing the RIGHT JOIN
by FULL JOIN.

This will cause all dates to appear that either have orders or deliveries, or both.

I thought that you needed the days without orders to appear, but not the days without deliveries,
as you didn't include June the 29th on your desired result.

But it's not serious, If I understand correctly.
Just replace the RIGHT by FULL

Best,
Oliveiros

Hi Oliveiros,

Thank you for this. However, this does not give me what I want.

If a date exists where we have orders but no deliveries the row does not
appear.

I have tried doing a union to link the two selects together, but i still
cannot get anything to work.
