Hi!
I've got 2 date fields in table which constitute a term. On select I'm
calculating that term, BUT I can't figure out how to refer to it in the
sql - or if it's possible. I'd like to be able to use the case returned
value for order, comparing, etc. Here's an example:
select case when (current_date > available) then ((end_date -
current_date) / 30)
when (current_date < available) then ((end_date - available) /
30)
end
from listing
This yields something along the line of:
case
------
2
39
11
64
...
which is great. Now, I'd like to be able to do this for example:
select case when (current_date > available) then ((end_date -
current_date) / 30)
when (current_date < available) then ((end_date - available) /
30)
end
from listing
where case > 4
which yields:
ERROR: parser: parse error at or near ">"
Does anyone know how I could accomplish this?
Thanks in Advance!
Nick
