I need to run a query that returns all events that has Electrophysiology Study But don't have %Ablation% So in this case I should receive only events 608 and 612. The table has two columns SS_EVENT_EP_ID and STUDYPROCEDURE

I just saw your tables. Yes you are correct, you need a subquery.
What you need is the EXISTS
operator as well.
SELECT EP.SS_Event_EP_ID, EP.StudyProcedure, Event_EP.EventDate
FROM Event_EP INNER JOIN EP_Procedure As EP
ON Event_EP.SS_Event_EP_ID = EP.SS_Event_EP_ID
WHERE EP.StudyProcedure = "Electrophysiology study"
AND (Event_EP.EventDate Between #1/1/2004# And #12/31/2012#)
AND NOT EXISTS (
Select SS_Event_EP_ID from EP_Procedure As EP_I
Where EP_I.SS_Event_EP_ID = EP.SS_Event_EP_ID
And EP_I.StudyProcedure Like "%blation%"
)
