Re: SQL Dynamic column naming

Chris,

You've got it backwards:

Select 
        curdate() as todays_results,
        (curdate() - 1 days) as yesterdays_results
from 
        sometable

You don't even need the "as" on the iSeries.

HTH,

SQL Dynamic column naming






Is it possible to name columns the result of a formula? For example
something like

 

Select

            Todays_results as curdate(),

            Yesterdays results as (curdate() - 1 days)

From

            Sometable
