Help!- simple code advice

I'm definitely a newb, so bear with.

in an sql database i have 2 tables, A and B. each is loaded with a phone number. i would like to take A, and compare it to B.

If A is anywhere on B, do nothing.

If A is nowhere on B, export it to a new table, we'll call C

another way would be to have them compare and if A is on B, delete the record. If A is not on B, leave it alone, and now A will be the new table with clean data.


Any help? keep in mind i'm a moron, so you'll have to walk me through all the steps.

Thanks


Mike

do you mean IN?
If A is IN B?

Something like this will get you a list of phone numbers from Table A, that aren't in TableB
Code:
SELECT DISTINCT Phone
FROM A
WHERE Phone NOT IN 
   (
      SELECT DISTINCT Phone
      FROM B
   )
