In my table I have (LocID) which is my PK and I am trying to narrow it down to specific 4, however when I run the query below I get only one answer. What needs to be fixed in this query?
-- second we find out the name of the locations
select name from location where locid = 524 and 512 and 505 and 506 ;
The query you intended to write would be better expressed using WHERE IN
:
select name from location where locid = in (524, 512, 505, 506);
What is actually happening in your current query is that the locid
values on the RHS after the initial one (524
) are being interpreted as literal true. So, your query is identical to this:
select name from location where locid = 524 and true and true and true;
This of course is just the same as:
select name from location where locid = 524;
That is, you will only get back records from matching 524
.
