* Problem with FOR UPDATE

Hi All,
I have a query in which I want to SELECT FOR UPDATE same rows but only 
from one table.
Firs I try just with SELECT FOR UPDATE but I receive an error
because of the LEFT JOIN - "ERROR:  SELECT FOR UPDATE/SHARE cannot be 
applied to the nullable side of an outer join".
So I decide to use SELECT FOR UPDATE OF <table name> but I then receive 
the error you can see.
Can anyone help me with this query?

Thanks in advance.

  Regards,
    Kaloyan Iliev

Use the alias, ie, DD.  Remember that an alias hides the real name of
that table for all purposes in the current query.

I think you'd want to use DD not debts_desc as you've renamed the from
list entry.
