Problem with Attribute.

From
Rado Petrik
Date:
Hi , 

I have table picture_path.


1. Step one. Write query to psql. 

power2=# select *  from picture_path ;

retur: 
id_path | p_path | count  
---------+--------+--------
(0 rows)


2. Step two. Write query.

power2=# select count from picture_path;

return: 

ERROR:  Attribute 'count' not found
power2=# 

Why ? 


This is dump table picture_path.

CREATE TABLE "picture_path" (  "id_path" int4 DEFAULT nextval('"picture_path_id_path_seq"'::text)
NOT NULL,  "p_path" varchar(20) NOT NULL,  "count " int2 NOT NULL
);

Thanks.

count() is a function.
so:

select count(*) from picture_path;

maybe you need
select "count " from picture_path;
