Hello all, I've been searching the Gambas mailing list archives and documentation for a answer to a problem I have. Tried all kinds of suggestions but haven't solved the problem yet.
This is the situation simplified: A MySql database named MyData with a two tables named IC and Products. Both tables have a field ProductID with a relation inbetween. Table IC has fields ID -> Primary Key, Indexed ProductID -> Indexed Initial IC Actual IC ValueInitial ValueActual Table Product has fields: ProductID -> Primary Key, Indexed Description In a query I need to retrieve all fields in IC except ProductID and Description in Products I manage to get the query done except for the fields Initial IC and Actual IC (because of the blanc in the field name). As I understand in MySql I need to query: SELECT 'Actual IC' FROM IC to get Actual IC I have tried it like this in Gambas (rData being a Result and ConMyData being the connection) rData = ConMyData.Exec("SELECT &1 FROM IC", "'Actueel IC'") But the syntax is not accepted by MySql To make the matter more complicated when querying more than one table you need to add the table to the query syntax like this SELECT IC.ID, Product.Description FROM IC LEFT JOIN Product ON IC.ProductID=Product.ProductID ORDER BY IC.ID DESC Or in Gambas: rData = ConMyData.Exec(SELECT IC.ID, Product.Description FROM IC LEFT JOIN Product ON IC.ProductID=Product.ProductID ORDER BY IC.ID DESC) This works perfect, but when I want to add field IC.Actual IC to that query in a db.Exec() what is the proper format? I tried with: IC.'Actual IC' 'IC'.'Actual IC' 'IC.Actual IC' They all give back syntax errors from MySql Any suggestions welcome -- Kind regards, Willy (aka gbWilly) http://gambasshowcase.org/ http://howtogambas.org http://gambos.org ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ Learn the latest--Visual Studio 2012, SharePoint 2013, SQL 2012, more!
