EXISTS (subquery) |
||
An exists_predicate is used to indicate a subquery and then check whether it returns anything. This is done by passing the EXISTS keyword followed by the subquery.
This example returns the total sales when there is a store in the region specified:
SELECT SUM (Sales)
FROM Store_Information
WHERE EXISTS
(SELECT * FROM Geography
WHERE region_name = 'West')
