Modify a join operator in a query (ADP)

By default, the Query Designer joins tables using an equal sign (an equijoin), which matches values in the two join columns. If you want, you can change the operator used to compare values in the join columns.

1. In the Database window, click Queries under Objects, click the query you want to open, and then click Design on the database window toolbar.
2. In the Diagram pane, right-click the join line you want to modify, and then choose Properties from the shortcut menu.
3. In the Join Line tab of the Properties dialog box, select a new operator from the list.

Note  You can also change the operator in the SQL statement in the SQL pane.
