HI
just started using postgres I want to do a select like the following.
I have a table with two columns a and b, where sometimes data are missing.
I want to do:
SELECT ifnull(a,b) FROM table;
==>ERROR: No such function 'ifnull' with the specified attributes
tried the same thing with isnull and coalesce, same error.
help?! thanks, jochen
