creating a query from multiple tables in access

Question

I have an issue with designing a query I could do with some help with. I have three tables (there is more but these should do for this):

• Game Review
• Reviewer
• Game

I need a query that will only select games that the reviewer has not reviewed (if that makes any sense).

Any ideas? It's to populate a box on an add-review form so that when a reviewer has been selected, the next drop-down will only show games that have not been reviewed yet by that reviewer

Further info: game review and reviewer contain a reviewer ref field, game review and game contain a game ref field

SELECT Game.*, [Game Review].*
FROM Game LEFT JOIN [Game Review] ON Game.[Game Ref] = [Game Review].[Game Ref*]
WHERE [Game Review].[Reviewer ref*] IS NULL;

i think this doesnt work because im getting the data from a text box in the form ie

[Forms]![FRM_Add_review_form]![reviewercombo]

Answer 1

I'm making some asumptions because I don't have all the field names, but it would be something like this:

SELECT Game.*, GameReview.*
from Game
Left Join GameReview 
on Game.GameID = GameReview.GameID
WHERE GameReview.Review IS NULL
