Hi,
Please tell me 
Is there any thing difference between this two queries ?
as the result is coming  same   for  both the query.
where can i use this query ??
SELECT   nme, dptname
    FROM emp LEFT JOIN dept ON emp.dpt_id = dept.dpt_id
ORDER BY nme DESC
SELECT   nme, dptname
    FROM emp, dept
   WHERE emp.dpt_id = dept.dpt_id(+)
ORDER BY nme DESC
The result -->
nme,            dptname
