Invalid Column Name Sql
Event ID 207 Event Source MSSQLSERVER Component SQLEngine Symbolic Name SQ_BADCOL Message Text Invalid column name '%.*ls'. Explanation This query error can be caused by one of the following problems. The column name is misspelled or the column does not exist in any of the specified tables. The collation of the database is case-sensitive and the case of the column name specified in the query does not match the case of the column defined in the table. For example, when a column is defined in a table as LastName and the database uses a case-sensitive collation, queries that refer to the column as Lastname or lastname will cause error 207 to return because the column name does not match. A column alias, defined in the SELECT clause, is referenced in another clause such as a WHERE or GROUP BY clause. For example, the following query defines the column alias Year in the SELECT clause and refers to it in the GROUP BY clause. Copy USE AdventureWorks2012; GO SELECT DATEPART(yyyy,OrderDate) AS Year, SUM(TotalDue) AS Total FROM Sales.SalesOrderHeader GROUP BY Year; Due to the order in which query clauses are logically processed, the example returns error 207.

Now, I believe I know WHY (sort of) this is happening, as I am trying to insert a value that is based on the value of a field in http://stackoverflow.com/questions/15408231/sql-insert-msg-207-invalid-column-name another column using a case query, but I'm not sure I'm really doing this right - see the codes: INSERT INTO dbo.table_name(points, discount) VALUES (3, CASE WHEN (points = 6) THEN 0.5 WHEN (points = 12) THEN 1.0 ELSE 0 END I am getting the invalid column name on the "points" column. It is definitely there so am I correct in thinking that my query is not right, or that I should be going about this a different way? I am using SQL server 2008 R2 - not sure if that makes any difference. sql-server sql-server-2008-r2 sql-insert share|improve this question edited Dec 16 '15 at 15:29 R O M A N I A 12.5k116677 asked Mar 14 '13 at 11:39 ChocolateSheep 4016 Where is the (points = 6) and (points = 12) coming from? What points are you trying to reference? I don't understand what you are trying to do here. –bluefeet♦ Mar 14 '13 at 11:42 sorry I think I've probably confused it a bit... I want the discount value to be either 0, 0.5 or 1.0 depending on the value of the points field, again I'm not sure I'm doing the right thing with the case... &ndas

The initial query sql server works fine: SELECT "Ugly OLAP name" as "Value" FROM OpenQuery( OLAP, 'OLAP Query') But if I try to add: WHERE "Value" > 0 I get an error Invalid column name 'Value' Any ideas what I might be doing wrong? So the problem was that the order in which elements of the query are processed are different that the order they are written. According to this source: http://blogs.x2line.com/al/archive/2007/06/30/3187.aspx The order of evaluation in MSSQL is: FROM ON JOIN WHERE GROUP invalid column name BY HAVING SELECT ORDER BY So the alias wasn't processed until after the WHERE and HAVING clauses. sql sql-server share|improve this question edited Oct 8 '08 at 22:21 ConcernedOfTunbridgeWells 44.4k12111175 asked Sep 5 '08 at 17:26 dmo 2,20242537 1 What's with all the not-an-answers on this question!? –Lightness Races in Orbit Jul 27 '11 at 17:20 add a comment| 4 Answers 4 active oldest votes up vote 15 down vote accepted This should work: SELECT A.Value FROM ( SELECT "Ugly OLAP name" as "Value" FROM OpenQuery( OLAP, 'OLAP Query') ) AS a WHERE a.Value > 0 It's not that Value is a reserved word, the problem is that it's a column alias, not the column name. By making it an inline view, "Value" becomes the column name and can then be used in a where clause. share|improve this answer answered Sep 5 '08 at 17:45 Chris Miller 2,87222032 add a comment| up vote 6 down vote You're using "Value" as a column alias, and I don't think the alias can appear in the where clause. It's simply used to name the returned column value. Your where clause should refer to the original column name: SELECT "Ugly OLAP name" as "Value" FROM OpenQuery( OLAP, 'OLAP Query') WHERE "Ugly OLAP name" > 0 share|improve this answer answered Sep 5 '08 at 18:52 Andrew 7,95795274 add a comment| up vote 0 down vote Oh, bummer.
