Hi Guys

Hopefully someone can point me in the right direction.

I'm using an ODBC driver to connect to a Progress Database

'Progress OpenEdge 10.2B Driver'

Everything seems to work fine until I try and use the GROUP BY clause

  SELECT pub.sfeventcds.mach-id
    FROM pub.sfeventcds 
   WHERE ( pub.sfeventcds.start-time >= :from_time ) AND 
         ( pub.sfeventcds.end-time <= :to_time ) AND 
         ( pub.sfeventcds.mach-id = :mach_id ) AND 
         ( pub.sfeventcds.stat-code = '700' )  
GROUP BY pub.sfeventcds.mach-id  

When I try and run I get this error

Any ideas?

 

Thank You Tom

Hi Tom;

  FWIW: Appeon versions of PB do not support the Progress DBMS at this time.

Using ODBC, I would expect PB should handle Progress just fine as long as you stay close to ANSI-SQL syntax.

I see you write MACH-ID and DBMS complains on MACH. So:

  • Is your column actually named MACH_ID (underscore instead of dash)?
  • Can Progress accept your SQL when that column is referenced as "MACH-ID"?

Potentially same issue for other identifiers containing a dash.

Thank you very much Michael.



It definitely is connected to the "-" PB is expecting "_".

Based on your message I went back in and converted to SQL, then tried changing from "-" to "_" in the SQL window

Initially PB gave me an error, so I then changed it back from "_" to "-". BUT, then when I tried to run the script it worked. Seems like PB wants you to change and then change back before it works. Strange, but that seems to be the solution.



Thank you very much and Happy New Year

Tom
