If that last table uses the same join to link to the tables above it in
the query, you'll need to create new join variables since an inclusion
join variable can only be used in the main table and the table being
joined.
or, explained a different way.. an ordinary join can be used to link three
or four tables, if necessary and convenient.. but an outer join (the
exclamation) can only link two tables.. and, more than one example can be
used in a single field, if these rules mandate it.. for example:
table A | key field |
| _joinA!, _joinB |
table B | key field |
| _joinB |
table C | key field |
| _joinB |
table D | key field |
| _joinB |
table E | key field |
| _joinA |

then it's the join to the last table that MUST have the exclamation..
that
makes the link "whether there's a match, or not"..
If that last table uses the same join to link to the tables above it in
the query, you'll need to create new join variables since an inclusion
join variable can only be used in the main table and the table being
joined.
I reiterate this, since I messed up on this a BUNCH before I realized the
issue.
