When querying the two tables above we are looking to return;
--------------------------
| ID | Name | Phone |
--------------------------
| 2 | Jane | 2225551212 |
| 4 | Joan | 4445551212 |
| 5 | Jake | 5555551212 |

Limited success.....doing the following returns the records that match;
(which IS NOT the info I want)
SELECT tblFOO.name, tblFOO.phone
FROM tblFOO INNER JOIN tblBAR
ON (tblFOO.phone = tblBAR.phone)
but doing the following returns all records in tblFOO
SELECT tblFOO.name, tblFOO.phone
FROM tblFOO INNER JOIN tblBAR
ON (tblFOO.phone <> tblBAR.phone)
Where, oh where I have gone wrong?
