I'm sorry for all the line noise, but I like to post my solutions "for
the record".
Reading up a bit more of the JOIN types I was finally able to get all
rows in 'foo' returned just once with a t/f depending if a given
baz_bar_id exists. The query is:
(Where '2' is the 'baz_bar_id' I am checking on)
SELECT
f.foo_id,
f.foo_name,
CASE z.baz_foo_id
WHEN 2
THEN TRUE
ELSE FALSE
END
FROM foo f
LEFT JOIN baz z
ON f.foo_id=z.baz_foo_id
AND z.baz_bar_id=2;
Thanks again, both of you!
