I'm writing a SQL statement to select a user on a table if that user does not exist on another table, then I want to pull in all their data from another table then I'll be outputting all that in Coldfusion.

How do I do this? I have tried, my atempt is below:

pro_profile == All employees mod_userStatus == All Professional Staff members I am doing the not exists to remove professional stuff to just get our student staff. mod_StudentCertifications is a listing of the certifications they (students) hold.

If we do an AND statement between the where statements it returns no users, or only users that meet both conditions, if we do an OR it will return users with only 1 condition. I need it first Match the not exists then proceed to the exists statement.

Is that do able?

Here's my Statement:

            SELECT
         profileID,
         firstName,
            lastName
        FROM 
         pro_Profile

WHERE not exists ( SELECT profileID FROM mod_userStatus WHERE mod_userStatus.profileID = pro_Profile.profileID )

        OR

        exists (
          SELECT          
            cprAdultExp,
            cprInfantChildExp,
            cprFPRExp,
            aedExp,
            firstAidExp,
            emtExp,
            waterSafetyInstructionExp,
            bloodPathogensExp,
            oxygenAdminExp,
            lifegaurdingExp,
            wildernessResponderExp,
            notes
         FROM
          mod_StudentCertifications
         WHERE
          mod_StudentCertifications.profileID = pro_Profile.profileID       

        );
