I know I cannot use an alias in a where clause, but I am trying to figure out how to achieve what I need.
If I could have an alias in a where clause my sql would look like this: SELECT IFNULL(f_tag_bottom, IFNULL(f_tag_bottom_major_axis, IFNULL(f_tag_bottom_minor_axis, IFNULL(f_tag_ch_x_bottom, IFNULL(f_tag_ch_y_bottom, NULL))))) as ftag, STDDEV(ch_x_top) FROM data_cst WHERE ftag = 'E-CD7' GROUP BY wafer_id, lot_id But I can't use ftag in the where clause. I can't put it in a having clause, as that would exclude the already aggregated rows and I want to filter then before the aggregation. Anyone have any idea how I can do this? -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql
