Hi,

I am fairly new to PostgreSQL but not to SQL.  Is this a bug or a
limitation...

The first query works fine, but when a second sub-query is added I get a
syntax error...

psql protocal2 -U p2user << EOF1   select *      from serv_res SR      where serv_key = 10        and not exists
   (select 1             from reservation R           )
 
--         and not exits 
--            (select 1 
--               from interval R1
--            )
order by 1
;   select *      from serv_res SR      where serv_key = 10        and not exists            (select 1
fromreservation R           )        and not exits           (select 1              from interval R1           )
 
order by 1
;

EOF1

The output is as follows:

Password for user p2user:serv_key | res_key | start_off_min | duration_min
----------+---------+---------------+--------------
(0 rows)

ERROR:  syntax error at or near "select" at character 192
LINE 9:             (select 1                    ^

Note:  This is not the actual query I want to run but just kept removing
complexity until the problem (multiple sub-selects) seemed obvious.
