I have a table with 6000 codes
I have un update statement which should update 87 rows
Update table
set STATUS = 'N'
where code IN ('A', 'B', etc)
It only updates 80 rows
There are seven codes in the IN-list not present in the table.
What is the SQL-statement to know which 7 codes are not present? |

How do you know there should be 87?
The same "where" that would identify these 87 would also include them for update

I believe this would return far too many rows. . . |
