[Solved] Data content could not be loaded / Single value expected

Post by FDB »

Open Office 4.1.14 - BASE
OSX 10.14.6 - Mojave

Upon using an view for a simple table, I get get the message "The data content could not be loaded / Single value expected in statement [SELECT * FROM "v1T1"]"

Table T1 :

I want to select the records grouped by ORG and having the latest date in a view:
View v1T1:

Code: Select all

SELECT "ID", "NAME", "VALUE" 
FROM "T1"
WHERE "DATE" = (
	SELECT MAX("DATE")
	FROM "T1"
	GROUP BY "ORG"
)
The syntax of the code is OK, but when using the view I get :
Error :
The data could note be loaded
Error:
SQL Status: 21000
Error code: -17
Single value expected in statement [SELECT * FROM "v1T1"]

Anyone an idea what I am doing wrong ?

Q2 : where does the statement [SELECT * FROM "v1T1"] come from ?

advTHANKSance

The sub query

Code: Select all

SELECT MAX("DATE")
	FROM "T1"
	GROUP BY "ORG"

will return four rows. I think you can't use "DATE" = in the full query and you should use "DATE" IN

Code: Select all

SELECT "ID", "NAME", "VALUE" 
FROM "T1"
WHERE "DATE" IN (
	SELECT MAX("DATE")
	FROM "T1"
	GROUP BY "ORG"
)
