Sub Query problem

Hi all,

I have a problem resolving a sub query. Heres what I've got:
database Fairground
A table 'STANDS' with a stand number and a descrition
A table 'Stands allocated' with the standnumber, the year and the client.
A combobox which should show me the stands available.

What I am trying to figure out is a query which shows me all free stands for
a particular year. What I am doing now in Code is to fill a recordset with
all the stands and then to put a query on each stand in the table 'stands
allocated'. When the recordcount of the query is 1 then I know that the
stand is already in use. With this I am able to fill my combobox.

What I want to know: Isn't there a SQL instruction for this issue. I am
thinking since two days about this but I can't see a solution. I tried
subqueries but my SQL knowledge isn't that good to be able to resolve this
problem on my own.

Could anyone help me please???

thanks in advance
Günter
