Help to write a query needed please

I am new to using this software and have so far spent many hours inputting my data and linking to scanned images of BMD certs in my possession.
One thing I would really like to do, as it would assist me to plan my future research needs greatly, is to produce a query which shows me the records for which I have not yet obtained relevant certificates. I have a number of ancestors for whom I have census entries, so therefore know of their existance but other than ploghing through each and every record one by one I cannot for the life of me work out how to do this.
Can any of you experts out there advise my on how to proceed? I find this query lark totally incomprehensible and yet I feel this program should be able to do this.

Hi Jean,
Sorry about the delay, I have only just come back from Christmas visits.

I will see what I can come up with.
