Since ANSI SQL-92, explicit joins using the ``++JOIN++`` keyword have been possible, and are preferred. Therefore table joins should be done with help of the one of the following clauses: ``++JOIN++``, ``++INNER JOIN++``, ``++LEFT OUTER JOIN++``, ``++RIGHT OUTER JOIN++``, and ``++FULL OUTER JOIN++``. The old way to join tables is deprecated and should not be used anymore.
