Subject Select with UNION problems
Author tico_naves
When using SELECT with UNION like the example, I get an error. I've
made some tests and I think the problem is that the string column
CLIENT must match exactly the same SIZE. But It's a VARCHAR in the
dababase, so how I have to do ?

SELECT SO.IDOS as ID, 'Empty' as CLIENT
FROM SO SO
WHERE
SO.IDCLIENT IS NULL
UNION
SELECT SO.IDOS as ID, CL.NAMECLI as CLIENT
FROM SO SO, CLIENT CL
WHERE
SO.IDCLIENT = CL.IDCLIENT
SO.IDCLIENT IS NOT NULL

The error is :
ISC Error code : 335544569

SQL error -104
Invalid command
Data type unknown

Firebird WI-V1.5.0.4306 Firebird 1.5
