Using QMF

Selecting rows using opposite conditions

You specify the opposite of any condition by typing NOT before it.

If you specify >, <, or =, you must type NOT in front of the entire condition.

For example, type:

WHERE NOT YEARS = 10

If you specify a NULL, LIKE, IN, or BETWEEN condition, type NOT right before the condition keyword.

For example, type:

WHERE YEARS IS NOT NULL

WHERE YEARS IS NOT NULL

The following query selects employees whose salary is under $16,000.00 and over $22,000.00:

SELECT ID, NAME, SALARY
  FROM Q.STAFF
  WHERE SALARY NOT BETWEEN 16000 AND 22000

The following query selects employees whose salary is under $16,000.00 and who earn less than $500.00 in commissions:

SELECT ID, NAME, SALARY, COMM
  FROM Q.STAFF
  WHERE NOT SALARY > 16000 AND NOT COMM > 500
