Hi.
Show this:


SELECT
"ZZ_rptCCTransactions_Detail"."TransC_lgnNumber", "ZZ_rptCCTransactions_Detail"."PayLog_dtmTransDateTime"
FROM "HO"."dbo"."rptCCTransactions" "rptCCTransactions"

What is the meaning of the double table declaration?
This comes from a crystal reports file that i am fiddling with.

it's not a double declaration. the second occurrence of "rptCCTransactions" is a table alias.

Hi, i thought of that but if i change the alias in something other tha the exact name i get an error so i thought that it's not actually an alias.

Show us the error then. And also show us the actual query.
