Hi,
[Quoted] I have an oracle table like the following:
SQL> describe platform;
Name Null? Type -------------------------------------------- PLATFORMID NUMBER(1) NAME VARCHAR2(128) DESCRIPTION VARCHAR2(255)
But when I try to get a simple select statement. I get an erorr:
SQL> select * from platform where name = Win32;
Input truncated to 1 characters
select * from platform where name = Win32
*
ERROR at line 1:
ORA-00904: invalid column name
I need a single quote:
SQL> select * from platform where name = 'WIN32';
Is that I must use a single quote? Is that oracle on NT is not case sensitive? Since I can use upper and lower case for table name. Thanks. Received on Tue Jan 09 2001 - 03:22:13 CET
