RE: Another SQL question

Hi Sheri,

I think a simple change to the Where clause can eliminate a great deal of 
confusion.  Not operators are great, but the mind has a hard time dealing with 
this in complicated expressions.  I think I's write this as 

WHERE A.PZQTOR > 0 or A.PZQTSH > 0

This clearly states that at least one of these columns must have a value 
greater than zero.  Rows with zero in both fields will not be selected.

hth,
Eric

Subject: Another SQL question


Hi All,

I would like to know the SQL syntax to exclude records in a file where 2
fields both equal zero.  In the file below I would want all records
except item 33333.

FILEA
ITEM        QTYORDER          QTYSHIP
11111        0                 100
22222        10                 0
33333        0                  0
44444        100               100    

SELECT A.PZCONO, A.PZCSNO, A.PZWHID, A.PZQTOR, A.PZQTSH FROM          
APLUS2FXX/ZPOFILLD A WHERE (NOT(A.PZQTOR = 0) and NOT(A.PZQTSH = 0)) 

When I run this code I only get item 444444.

Thanks in advance.
