Обсуждение: MS-QUERY / Postgresql ODBC driver incompatibility
Hello. I've found a problem in using the postgresql ODBC driver with MS-QUERY. MS-Query is the tool included in Microsoft Office to access db in excel. If I type in ms-query : select code as groupe_clients, libelle from groupes_clients I have an error message. After some search, it appears that postgresql receive : select code as 'groupe_clients', libelle from groupe_clients But postgresql don't want ' but double quote " in the as part. MS-Query doesn't include a parameter to change this. It seems to be a ms-query bug... If no solution exists, I think it's a good idea to include an alert in the faq (http://psqlodbc.projects.pgfoundry.org/faq.html) As I have searching for a loooong time on google to see what I can make to fix this. Am I the only one wich access to postgresql in excel using ms-query and with as clause ? my ODBC driver version : 8.03.02.00 my PostgreSQL database version : 8.4.16 Thanks for your attention.

After some search, it appears that postgresql receive : > select code as 'groupe_clients', libelle > from groupe_clients So what if you do: select code as "groupe_clients", libelle from groupes_clients Also you might try creating the query in the Query Designer and specifying groupe_clients as the alias.

This is how I do it I have not had any issues. I've got the same error I'm very surprised that you can make it. It seems MS-QUERY use ' to quote an alias (containing a space or not). And it seems that pgsql-odbc don't translate it to "

Try to grab a recent version from http://www.postgresql.org/ftp/odbc/versions/msi/ I'd try 9.2.1. (Should work fine with Postgres 8.4 in case you're wondering.)
