I'm having difficulty modifying a script for this situation and wondering if someone maybe able to help:

I have an address table and a phone table both sharing the same column called id_number. So id_number = 2 on both tables refers to the same entity. Address and phone information used to be stored in one table (the address table) but it is now split into address and phone tables since we moved to Oracle 11g.

There is a 3rd table called both_ids. This table also has an id_number column in addition to an other_ids column storing SSN and some other ids.

Before the table was split into address and phone tables, I had this script: (Written in Sybase)

INSERT INTO sometable_3 (          
SELECT a.id_number, a.other_id, 
       NVL(a1.addr_type_code,0)      home_addr_type_code,             
       NVL(a1.addr_status_code,0)    home_addr_status_code,             
       NVL(a1.addr_pref_ind,0)      home_addr_pref_ind,             
       NVL(a1.street1,0)             home_street1,             
       NVL(a1.street2,0)              home_street2,             
       NVL(a1.street3,0)              home_street3,             
       NVL(a1.city,0)                 home_city,             
       NVL(a1.state_code,0)           home_state_code,             
       NVL(a1.zipcode,0)              home_zipcode,             
       NVL(a1.zip_suffix,0)           home_zip_suffix,             
       NVL(a1.telephone_status_code,0) home_phone_status,             
       NVL(a1.area_code,0)             home_area_code,             
       NVL(a1.telephone_number,0)      home_phone_number,             
       NVL(a1.extension,0)             home_phone_extension,             
       NVL(a1.date_modified,'')      home_date_modified               
 FROM both_ids a, address a1          
 WHERE a.id_number = a1.id_number(+) 
 AND a1.addr_type_code = 'H');   

Now that we moved to Oracle 11g, the address and phone information are split.

How can I modify the above script to generate the same result in Oracle 11g?

Do I have to first do INNER JOIN between address and phone tables and then do a LEFT OUTER JOIN to both_ids?

I tried the following and it did not work:

Insert Into..
  select ...
    FROM a1. address
      INNER JOIN t.Phone ON a1.id_number = t.id_number
      LEFT OUTER JOIN both_ids a ON a.id_number = a1.id_number
    WHERE a1.adrr_type_code = 'H'
