Good morning,

Oh joyous day! We are upgrading a legacy database system from MS  
Access to PostgreSQL! Yay!

Ok, rejoicing over. Here's our issue and PLEASE point me to the right  
place if this has been discussed before.

In MS Access one can reuse field aliases later in the same query. For  
example:

   SELECT field1 / 2 AS foo,
          field2 * 2 AS bar,
          foo + bar AS total
   WHERE foo < 12;

The first two fields are fine, it's the third that's a problem. The  
database reports

   ERROR:  column "foo" does not exist

This type of situation is happening -many- times in well over fifty  
existing SELECT..INTO and INSERT INTO queries. The obvious solution  
here is to copy the code around to eliminate the need to reuse "foo"  
and "bar" in the query:

   SELECT field1 / 2 AS foo,
          field2 * 2 AS bar,
          (field1 / 2) + (field2 * 2) AS total
   WHERE (field1 / 2) < 12;

But this is a bit ugly and cumbersome and in our case, not desirable  
since foo and bar get used many times in the remains of the query. To  
replace them with the formulae means that debugging is quite  
difficult and very prone to errors.

Does anyone have suggestions on how to circumvent this in a more  
graceful manner? I mean I could probably find a way to do this with a  
couple of queries and some views, or maybe write a function (or more  
like 30 functions) to do the work, but both of those only add to the  
workload in an undesirable manner. :)

To complicate matters, performance is a concern. We're operating on  
upwards of a billion records. Not all at the same time, but the goal  
is to run these  a series of calculations will be done on all of the  
data.

Thanks for any input that you might have.

--Joel

Are you able to restructure your queries to be something like...?

SELECT
	t2.foo + t2.bar
FROM
	(
		SELECT
			field1 / 2 AS foo,
			field2 * 2 AS bar
		FROM
			table1 t1
		WHERE
			foo < 12
	) AS t2

PG allows sub-clauses and statements in the FROM clause, as well as in the
WHERE & SELECT clauses.

Not sure how these will perform on a billion rows, so a few EXPLAIN
ANALYSE outputs might help tune the queries some more if you have them.
The results should be semantically comparable to the MS Access queries
though (I think).

First, I think it would be great if this worked - like the alias to an
update table added in 8.2  - saves a lot of typing and makes queries
much more readable.

Second, only way I see is to set this on top of a view generating your
foo and bar aliases, and go from there.  Compared to rewriting the
expression each time, it has the advantages of better syntax in the end
and might yield better performance as well.

This is not an "extension", it is *directly* contrary to both the letter
and spirit of the SQL standard.  I can hardly believe that M$ did that
... oh, actually, I can entirely believe it.  The OP has a serious
problem of vendor lockin now, and that's exactly what M$ wants.

Hear hear!

What's really screwy is what I found when I hooked access into my  
PostgreSQL database using pgsqlODBC (I know, it's an abomination) and  
I logged the statements that PostgreSQL was processing. In MS Access  
this query:

   SELECT foo AS bar,  bar * 2 AS gleep FROM table;

became this in PostgreSQL's logs

   SELECT foo FROM table;

Vewwy Intewesting! I think Microsoft and ODBC might be making extra  
work for themselves (obviously they are since they are allowing these  
aliases) Or maybe not. Maybe I can glean something from this. Who knows.

Yeah, that *is* interesting --- it means Access is trying to do all the
arithmetic for itself.  I guess this means that you could keep using
the statements unchanged if you wanted to use Access as a frontend to
Postgres.  Of course you're trying to get away from that, but this
might at least give you a chance of fixing things incrementally instead
of having to fix everything all at once.

Joel,

To avoid ms access from managing the query, use a pass-through query.  Then access will send the raw sql statment to psql and psql will return just the results to access.

It will speed things up a bit too for large datasets.

"AS" works in Informix, and I believe, in DB2 as well.  So it is at
least pretty common;  I'm not saying it is correct.  Since Informix
predates M$-SQL they at least didn't invent it.

AS works in Postgres too. But the defined aliases are only in the resulting
output columns, not in scope for the where clause. In fact the expressions
used aren't even evaluated for rows which don't match the where clause which
is pretty important if those expressions are subqueries or volatile functions.

I can't speak to Informix, but I will bet a good lunch that it does not
work like that in DB2.  DB2 is one of the more nearly
standard-conformant databases on the planet.  (Or possibly it's the
other way around ... there seem to be a lot of IBMers on the committee.)

Don't attribute to malice what can be adequately explained by incompetence.

at which point is this breaking the specification ?
What would happen if postgres would allow this ? 

IMHO supporting aliases in where clauses would make some 
queries easier to read. Think of cases where some column 
is coming from an complex calculation (ie. many nested 
CASE'es, etc, etc) and you need that calculated column
in the WHERE clause. Of course it's good style to encode
those things in views, but is this always very performant ?
