Hi all. Hi spam filter. SQL. Query.
I'm trying to append data to a table ( Powertel_CCD_LineList ) if it doesn't already exist in the table:
insert into Powertel_CCD_LineList
( AccountNo, ServiceNumber, ServiceNumberDescription )
select
Powertel_CCD_CallDetails.AccountNo,
Powertel_CCD_CallDetails.ServiceNumber,
Powertel_CCD_CallDetails.ServiceNumberDescription
from
Powertel_CCD_CallDetails left join Powertel_CCD_LineList
on Powertel_CCD_CallDetails.ServiceNumber=Powertel_CCD_LineList.ServiceNumber
where
Powertel_CCD_LineList.DanPK is null
group by
Powertel_CCD_CallDetails.AccountNo,
Powertel_CCD_CallDetails.ServiceNumber,
Powertel_CCD_CallDetails.ServiceNumberDescription
If I run the query minus the 'insert into' bit, it runs fine. But when I run it _with_ the 'insert into' bit, I get:
ERROR 1066: Not unique table/alias: 'Powertel_CCD_LineList'
Please don't tell me I have to select into a tmp table first, and then back into the original...
So do I?
