I wrote a java program to query a data from 4 tables and the string query is like:
querydata ="select bizfavorite.bizid,bizprofile.bizname,bizprofile.bizphone,bizprofile.bizfax,bizfavorite.searchtype," + "bizfavorite.keyword,to_char(bizfavorite.listdate,'DD-MM-YYYY') as listdate,bizfavorite.offerid,offer.otype,offer.bizid as obizid," + "to_char(offer.oposted_date,'DD-MM-YYYY') as oposted_date,to_char(offer.oexpiry_date,'DD-MM-YYYY') as oexpiry_date," + "userprofile.username,userprofile.ufullname,userprofile.uemail" + " from bizfavorite join bizprofile using(bizid) join userprofile using(bizid) left join offer using(offerid)" + " where bizfavorite.username= ? and urole='1' order by listdate desc" + " limit " + recordPerpage + "," + beginRecord; When I run this query, I got this message : Message: ERROR: parser: parse error at or near "-" but when I ran this query from psql command prompt its ok.I got what I want. b2bscm=> select bizprofile.bizname,bizprofile.bizphone,bizprofile.bizfax,bizfavorite.searchtype,bizfavorite.keyword,to_char(bizfavorite.listdate,'DD-MM-YYYY') as listdate,bizfavorite.offerid,offer.otype,offer.bizid as obizid,to_char(offer.oposted_date,'DD-MM-YYYY') as date,to_char(offer.oexpiry_date,'DD-MM-YYYY') as oexpiry_date,userprofile.username,userprofile.ufullname,userprofile.uemail from bizfavorite join bizprofile using(bizid) join userprofile using(bizid) left join offer using(offerid) where bizfavorite.username= 'faiz' and urole='1' order by listdate desc limit 8,0; Any help, very much appreciated..Thanks ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
