You didn't add the date field to your query and couldn't work out why it didn't return the missing field for over 2 hours?
Perhaps SQL isn't for you as things get waaaaay more finicky than that.
Seriously. If this broke him it gets so much worse.. but honestly op, this is how you learn what to do and what not to.
I know that, my anger has manifested this post, and I shouldn't have criticized the entire field
I think anyone who's been in the field for long enough knows you weren't really slamming all of it. Beaking off is totally okay.
Fair play. SQL is pretty different from traditional programming and errors often aren't very descriptive.
You'll need to get very familiar with fields you have included or not in your queries when using more advanced stuff like group functions as including or excluding them can alter the number of rows returned.
