How to achive this

List<Accounts> accList = [ Select Id, Name, (Select Id, Name From Contacts) From Account];

 

This will retrun all the accounts and like each account's Contacts

 

Now what i is needed is i want to restrict the accounts who has no contacts to be retrived.

 

Note the Query should be on Account.

To expand on Eric's answer, the query will be:

 

List<Account> list_Accounts =
[   SELECT  Id, Name
    FROM    Account
    WHERE   Id NOT IN (SELECT AccountId FROM Contact)
];

If this helps, please mark it as a solution, and give kudos (click on the star) if you think I deserve them. Thanks!

You want to do a SOQL Left anti Join.

 

SELECT Name FROM Position_c WHERE Id NOT IN

(SELECT Position__c FROM Job_Application__c)
