Hi Pete,

That has nothing to do with the CTE, column names within an view must be
unique, i.e. you need to add column list when creating your view:

Create View MySchema/MyView (Col1, Col2, Col3, ... ColN)
As With x ....;

Mit freundlichen Grüßen / Best regards

Betreff: A bit of a conundrum with using a CTE

I have an sql statement like so:

with tbl as (select * from vwPunches v,tbltclocs l where v.clockname =
l.clockname and location = 'GARAGE'
and srtDate between '2012-06-06' and '2012-06-21') , ins as (select * from
tbl where strinout='IN'), outs as (select * from tbl where strinout='OUT')
select .....

The vwPunches view and the tbltcdocs table both have an ID column. In the
SQL select statement that uses the ins and outs table I select the ID
columns like so:

ins.id, outs.id

but the statement issues an SQL0203 error: "Name ID is ambiguous." At first
I thought: It CAN'T be. I qualified the column name. But as I thought about
it further I realized that it was the CTE that was causing the problem.

Is the only fix to name the columns in the CTE rather than using * or is
there some clever way to refer to the column within the CTE that is
qualified?
