Using Aggregation in SQL queries from VB to Action Request System
Using Aggregation in SQL queries from VB to Action Request System
(OP)
Anyone got any ideas on how to use aggregate functions in SQL like COUNT, SUM and AVERAGE to query Action Request System tables from VB or MS Query?
I'm using VB 6.0 ADODB and can successful retrieve records but cannot use aggregation in the SELECT statement. For example (MS Query):
SELECT Count(XX_HelpDesk."Ticket No.") 'Countresult'
FROM XX_HelpDesk XX_HelpDesk
WHERE (XX_HelpDesk.Product='ORACLE')
returns error:
Expected lexical element not found <identifier>

Have you tried aggregating on a different column...one that has a name with no spaces, just in case that's the problem?
If so, maybe your ODBC driver is outdated?
