Hi everyone,

I have this table:

create table cat(
  cod integer, 
  cod_super integer,
  constraint cod_super_fk Foreign Key(cod_super) references cat(cod),
  constraint cod_pk Primary Key(cod)
);

insert into cat values(0, 1);
insert into cat values(1, 0);
insert into cat values(2, 0);
insert into cat values(3, 2);
insert into cat values(4, 3);
insert into cat values(5, 4);
insert into cat values(6, 0);
insert into cat values(7, 0);


The Query i want to do is:
  • I want to know all the children´s and subchildrens.
Example 1: I want to know the children´s of 0 will return 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7
Example 2: I want to know the children´s of 1 will return nothing
Example 3: I want to know the children´s of 2 will return 3, 4, 5


Did anyone knows how can i do this query?

Thanks a lot 
:)

Read this, it might shine a light for a other method of doing this.
