SELECT city, state, SQRT( POWER( ( latitude - 39.039200 ), 2 ) + POWER( ( longitude + 95.689508 ), 2 ) ) AS distance FROM geographics WHERE distance <1 ORDER BY distance LIMIT 10;
Returns: #1054 - Unknown column 'distance' in 'where clause' Are alias not allowed in WHERE clauses? I am able to replace the alias with the entire math function, and it works as desired. However, I do not like the heaviness/repetiveness of the query. -- MySQL General Mailing List For list archives: http://lists.mysql.com/mysql To unsubscribe: http://lists.mysql.com/[EMAIL PROTECTED]
