Albert,
I don’t see a way to alias the database. The SCONNECT automatically puts the dbo. in front of the table names.

Buckley Sent: Thursday, August 3, 2017 10:41 AM To: <mailto:[email protected]> [email protected] Subject: [RBASE-L] - Problem with a Select Distinct Statement Good morning, I'm running the latest build of R:BASE X Enterprise. I have a connection to a SQL database & about 6 or 8 SQL tables attached. I'm trying to create a SQL Select Distinct statement and can't get the syntax correct. Here's what I've tried: SELECT DISTINCT dbo.sales_rep.id AS rep_id, sales_rep.NAME-ALIAS from dbo.SALES_REP Error is: <image001.png> SELECT DISTINCT sales_rep.id AS rep_id from dbo.SALES_REP Error is: <image002.png> But this works without error: SELECT * from dbo.SALES_REP Any blues clues?
