beginne' - inserting a record
Dear List,
I have managed some small databases with FoxPro, but something is not
known by me to manage postgresql databases :(
I had created a database as 'postgres' user and I tried the following
as 'postgres' user too under Debian SID with postgresql 8.1:
(it seems to be a Hungarian version :-) - FoxPro couldn't speak
Hungarian)
# psql MediaBin
[...]
MediaBin=# \d media
Tábla "public.media"
Oszlop | Típus | Módosító
----------+--------------+----------
type | character(3) |
capacity | smallint |
mid | character(5) |
MediaBin=# insert into media values ("000", 120, "00001");
ERROR: column "000" does not exist
MediaBin=#
What the Hell could be wrong?

Your quotes. Use ' and that command will work.

I'm not familiar with version 8.1; however, you to use single quotes, not
double quotes as in:
INSERT INTO media VALUES ('000', 120, '00001');
That should work...

I think you should use single-quotes rather than doubles:
insert into media values ('000', 120, '00001');

If you have a table with field1, field2, field3, and you want to see
this table as field3, field2, field1, simple do 'select field3, field2,
field1 from table'.
Btw.: TOFU (top posting with fullquote below) are silly.
