Re: Something strang on "left join"

I also suspect the ID columns values for lines identified by CUST-NO.

Sorry to ask an additionnal question here. There is a useful Oracle function dump() to check the internal field value. Is there anything similar with PostgreSQL ?

Many thanks for your help.

Best Regards,
Jean-Pierre

Chances are some of the ID columns contain spaces or some other
whitespace characters. Try length() on them:

SELECT length("CI-CUST-NO") FROM ...
SELECT length("EC-CUST-NO") FROM ...
