Use quotes around the field and table names that are not all lower case: Ex: $result = pg_query($db," Select 'Field1',field2, 'fEild3' From'TABLE1' "); Patrick Hatcher Joseph L Montes <jmontes@xxxxxxxxxxx To: pgsql-php@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx > cc: Sent by: Subject: [PHP] Looking for help pgsql-php-owner@post gresql.org 08/27/2002 03:56 PM I am new to combining PHP and Postgres. I am able to Select and create tables by using the Select * From "table" command fine, but What happens if I only want to select a couple of fields. How do I go about this. also how do you select from a table that is not all lower case. Granted this is probably quite simple, but I am new to this. thanks ewveryone -- Joseph L Montes Senior Systems Engineer Zenplex Inc. 317 Madison Ave. suite 1500 New York New York V(212)499-0668 Ext. 203 F(646)865-0783 http://www.zenplex.com http://www.zenplex.org http://www.tambora.org ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ? http://www.postgresql.org/users-lounge/docs/faq.html
