Hi all,
I'm trying to create a view of the query below, but I'm being barked at
about "rules on SELECT must have action INSTEAD SELECT". I don't have any
rules in my database, and I don't know how this query is trying to create
one. The query does work if I just run it interactively. Any help would be
much appreciated.
SELECT DISTINCT ON (m1.id)
UPPER(m1.id) AS id,
UPPER(m1.first_name) AS first_name,
UPPER(m1.last_name) AS last_name,
UPPER(m1.company) AS company,
UPPER(m1.address1) AS address1,
UPPER(m1.address2) AS address2,
UPPER(m1.suburb) AS suburb,
UPPER(m1.state) AS state
INTO TEMP TABLE mail_duplicates
FROM maillist as m1
INNER JOIN maillist as m2 ON
( m1.id <> m2.id
AND UPPER(m1.first_name) = UPPER(m2.first_name)
AND UPPER(m1.last_name) = UPPER(m2.last_name)
AND UPPER(m1.suburb) = UPPER(m2.suburb)
)
WHERE TRIM(m1.first_name) <> ''
AND TRIM(m1.last_name) <> ''
;
SELECT d.id AS "ID",
INITCAP(d.first_name) AS first_name,
INITCAP(d.last_name) AS last_name,
INITCAP(d.company) AS company,
INITCAP(d.address1) AS address1,
INITCAP(d.address2) AS address2,
d.suburb AS suburb,
d.state AS state
FROM mail_duplicates AS d
ORDER BY d.last_name, d.first_name, d.suburb, d.id
;
