Not getting results from SQL query

Posted on by Rob Gresswell 290

Hi,

I'm running the below statement via SO Adminstrator as I want to view the contents of the order table

select * from order;

This statement returns the following error,

An error occurred while executing the query:  Incorrect syntax near the keyword 'order'.

Any clues why?  I can't see anything wrong.

    'Order' is a reserved term in SQL, which is why you're getting the error. Put it in []'s, and you'll be fine:

    SELECT * FROM [Order]

    (this is also the case with 'Transaction', fwiw)

    order is not a valide table.  

    try   SELECT * FROM [TRANSACTION]

    or   SELECT * FROM [TRANSACTIONENTRY]

    if you have years of history these commands will take a long time to complete.   What information are you trying to retrieve?

    [Order] is absolutely a valid table (there are multiple stock reports that query it). It holds customer Quotes/Work Orders/Layaways, and there won't necessarily be a corresponding entry in the [Transaction] table (linked via the RecallID field) until a particular order is processed through POS and completed as a transaction.

    Putting [ ] round the word fixed the problem.

    Thanks Dann
