Обсуждение: query statement help

I duplicated my database table layout in access2000 and dumped this query
into the query builder just to see if it came up with any errors. Except it
worked fine. So i am assuming there is something particular in postgres i am
not aware of. Here is my statement:

SELECT 1.entry_time
FROM table1AS 1, table2 AS 2
WHERE (1.subscription_id=2.subscription_id) And 2.user_id=9 And
2.widget_instance_id=159;

Putting this through access gives me the correct records. Putting this into
postgres gives me zero records.

Thanks in advance for any help.

IF emailing a reply, please replace NOSPAM with merk, thanks

Change the 1's to a's and the 2's to b's and everything should be fine.
postgres requires table names to start with a letter.

Actually, I think this is an access doesn't follow the rules situation.

If I read SQL92 correctly, the correlation names are supposed to be
identifiers, and must either be quoted or start with a
letter/syllable/ideograph.  Digits alone aren't cool.

BTW: what version are you using?  On my 7.0.2 box this gives me a
parse error.
