I need a select like this..:

select ordre.id, ordre.desc, log_stop.stoptype from ordre left outer join log_stop on
ordre.id = log_stop.ordreid where ordre.id = 22

The problem is that I need to include "where log_stop.stoptype = 1". So if log_stop
includes 3 rows with stoptype = 1 and ordreid = 22, my select should return 3 rows.
Also, if log_stop includes 3 rows with stoptype = 1 and 2 rows with stoptype = 2, my
select should still return 3 rows. And if there are 0 rows with stoptype = 1, my
select should return 1 row.

Is this possible?

Regards,

BTJ
