I can not find out how to do this in PL/SQL. My date/time fields look like this in the DB: 1/23/2010 21:00:00 I would appreciate any suggestions. Steve

  • Basic SQL Select in Postgresql fails

    - by Rhubarb
    I am doing a select * on a postgresql table, and everything looks good. But if I do: SELECT Name from People It says: ERROR: column People.Name does not exist SQL state: 42703 Character: 8 But the name column shows up during select *. I've tried: SELECT People.Name from People as well, with the same result. Am I missing something? It should be pretty easy to do this in any other database.

  • SQL Server 2005 Performance Dashboard Missing Index

    - by n8wrl
    I am using the performance dashboard with our SQL Server 2005 databases and it lists what it considers to be missing indexes. But some of those indexes DO exist! They are not disabled, and they are defined exactly as the dashboard says they should be. Why are they reported as missing?

  • Converting a certain SQL query into relational algebra

    - by Fumler
    Just doing an assignment for my database course and I just want to double check that I've correctly wrapped my head around relational algebra. The SQL query: SELECT dato, SUM(pris*antall) AS total FROM produkt, ordre WHERE ordre.varenr = produkt.varenr GROUP BY dato HAVING total >= 10000 The relational algebra: stotal >= 10000( ?R(dato, total)( sordre.varenr = produkt.varenr( datoISUM(pris*antall(produkt x ordre)))) Is this the correct way of doing it?

  • Sql query Error: Operand should contain 1 column(s) in rails

    - by dombesz
    Hi everyone, SELECT * FROM jobs WHERE (SELECT DISTINCT jobs.* FROM jobs, job_requests WHERE (jobs.user_id = 1) OR (job_requests.user_id = 1 AND job_requests.job_id = jobs.id)) This sql gives me Mysql::Error: Operand should contain 1 column(s). If i execute the select from the where clause it works SELECT DISTINCT jobs.* FROM jobs, job_requests WHERE (jobs.user_id = 1) OR (job_requests.user_id = 1 AND job_requests.job_id = jobs.id) Could somebody explain me why? This query is generated by rails activerecord so the main select is needed.

  • Why is the ( ) mandatory in the SQL statement select * from gifts INNER JOIN sentgifts using (giftID

    - by Jian Lin
    Why is the ( ) mandatory in the SQL statement select * from gifts INNER JOIN sentgifts using (giftID); ? The ( ) usually is for specifying grouping of something. But in this case, are we supposed to be able to use 2 or more field names... in the example above, it can be all clear that it is 1 field, is it just that the parser is not made to bypass the ( ) when it is all clear? (such as in the language Ruby).

  • MS SQL and Indentity column

    - by andrew007
    Hi, I just noticed that if I have an identity column in a table, when I insert new rows MS SQL 2008 is automatically filling up the sequence if there are discontinuity. I mean, if in my identity column I have 1,2,5,6 if I insert other two rows in the table the system puts automatically 3,7 in the identity column. Do you know how to control this behavior? THANKS

  • Use Tablediff to compare all tables

    - by Davie
    Hi, I have recently discovered the tablediff utility of SQL Server 2005. I have 2 instances of the same database each on a different server. Is it possible to compare all tables using tablediff without having to replicate the same command while only changing the table name? For example, compare table1 on server1 with table1 on server2 then compare table2 on server1 with table2 on server2, until all tables have been compared.
