Matching if exist or not

Hi Dear All,

Basically, I have 2 fields in table1 which are:  and 3 fields in Table2 which are:  What I want is:

Whether the distributor and ProductName both of them at the same time are available in table2 . If they together exist then I should be able to write "1" to somewhere (maybe in a new field in table2), otherwise if they dont exist in table2 I should be able to write "0" to somewhere to able to promote these distributors. Do you have any clear idea about how to do that?

Thank you in advance..

Table1:

DistributorProductName                                              
12001A
12002B
12003C
12004D
12005E
12002F
12003G

Table2:  

DistributorProductNameAmount
12001A9
12003B20
12003C16
12003D15
12005E5

Hi Dear Avinash,

Thank you so much for that prompt helpful reply, very grateful. I works perfect. I just changed slightly the field names in table1 not to have sytnetic relation in tables. Hovewer, I want it make it differanciate when it is "0", the are 2 possiblities, table1key is not there, it doesnt show this . For example: Distributor 12002 and ProductName B  is not shown anywhere. What the code give "0" for the one is not in table1 and available in table2 . For instance: 12001 distributor and Name F. The code assign for this "0". I want it to differantiate from the one i explained with assigning for instance -1. Do you know how can i do it? I attached the qlikview.

Thanks alot...
