HI tom
A few days back i had bugged this list about the seemingly impossible
select queries results..
##RECAP##
select distinct site_section as "distinct site sections" from
exhibit_distributions ;
distinct site sections
------------------------
ARCHIVED
ARTETC
CALENDAR
GALLERY
POSTCARD
(5 rows)
select site_section, count(*) from exhibit_distributions group by
site_section;
site_section | count
--------------+-------
| 352
| 45
| 1
| 166
| 2
##RECAP##
On going thru the flat files which we used to uplaod the database we
noticed a few fields had '' characters to signify '.. This was creating
problems in some jdbc queries.
One changing them to single ' and reloading all the data, the problem
simply disappered..
Thanks for the help
