The where clause is all I see in Query so they must have some other "magical" way of "Matched Records with Primary File" since a straight join with a where clause will be an implicit inner join.

Still trying to figure out why the query shows me some "missing" records and the SQL doesn't. Trial and error is going to take a while.....

I don't know but I'll guess that is an invalid assumption. Have you ever known them to use a join to join files, instead of where clauses?
