Taking on online class for SQL and am down to the last two classes and cannot make the following work. This is a MS SQL Server query that I have not been able to solve through the MySQL Documentation:
CREATE PROCEDURE CountPhoneNumbers AS DECLARE @count INTEGER SELECT @count = COUNT (*) FROM Customer WHERE HomePhone IS NOT NULL Print @count I have tried numerous variations of the following: CREATE PROCEDURE CountPhoneNumbers () BEGIN DECLARE @count INT SELECT @count = COUNT(*) FROM CUSTOMER WHERE HomePhone IS NOT NULL; END// // was set to be the delimiter for the creation and have tried putting various parts of the query into the parentheses. The error messages always seem to occur around the @count variable. I am using MySQL v.5.0.12 on Debian Etch. TIA, Jim Seymour -- I started using something better than the "standard" back when IBM advertised OS/2 Warp on TV. As Linux matured I made the transition from OS/2 v4 to Linux. You don't have to accept less than you deserve.
