    SELECT c.first_name, c.last_name, r.rental_date, f.title
    FROM customer c
    JOIN rental r ON c.customer_id = r.customer_id
    JOIN inventory i ON r.inventory_id = i.inventory_id
    JOIN film f ON i.film_id = f.film_id;

    FROM customer c
    JOIN rental r ON c.customer_id = r.customer_id

    Lab 05
    Corrections
    Lab manual 05 refers to a SQL Server Native Client. The SQL Server Native Client (often
    abbreviated SNAC) has been removed from SQL Server 2022 (16.x) and SQL Server
    Management Studio 19 (SSMS). The SQL Server Native Client (SQLNCLI or SQLNCLI11) and
    the legacy Microsoft OLE DB Provider for SQL Server (SQLOLEDB) are not recommended for
    new application development. Switch to the new Microsoft OLE DB Driver (MSOLEDBSQL)
    for SQL Server or the latest Microsoft ODBC Driver for SQL Server going forward.
