In response to Aggregates and joined tables...  ("omid omoomi" <oomoomi@hotmail.com>)
List pgsql-sql
Hello,
I have upgraded my DB to 7.0.3, but there is still the problem. I think that
it may be a bug.
Joining 3 tables was not possible...
It says "fa1 should be in aggregate too" !

While joining 2 tables gives wrong results ...
ie, if the results should be like this:
fa1           sum
-----       -------
ali           100
omid          200
shaya          50

then I get this:
fa1           sum
-----       -------
ali           350
omid          350
shaya         350

Any more idea ?
