You don't say which DBMS your using or what the specific error message
(sometimes they are helpful - although sometimes useless) is but I
think what your after is:
where status = 'i'
Notice that you must quote the values for string or characters. Try
this on your DBMS's command line (no we
It's probably a table definition thing. Is your 'netreceipts' column an

This should be ultimately simple; it just doesn't work. I want to limit
display to rows from a single table in which the status column contains
i. Only options are i, c, o. After the select line I have "where status
= i" (no quote marks). I get an error message to the "while" line that
