Question:

I use POSTGRES SQL. But I see that the POSTGRES SQL SINTAXES is not implemented.
Example:
SELECT coalesce(ean.codean) ean FROM EAN
There is an error: I think taht DB wants "as"
For me it is important that all my QUERY to be used "how are now"

 

Answer:

Currently DBxtra requires you to use the AS keyword to specify column alias, so the syntax you use (column_name alias) is not supported right now.

As a side note, we recommend you to use the AS keyword before column alias as it may lead to ambiguity according to the PostgreSQL documentation (http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/static/sql-select.html):
"In the SQL standard, the optional key word AS can be omitted before an output column name whenever the new column name is a valid column name (that is, not the same as any reserved keyword).

PostgreSQL is slightly more restrictive: AS is required if the new column name matches any keyword at all, reserved or not. Recommended practice is to use AS or double-quote output column names, to prevent any possible conflict against future keyword additions."
