rollup not working

Am looking at an Oracle SQL reference book.

They have the following SQL for ROLLUP which works

SELECT 0.YEAR, TO_CHAR(TO_DATE (O.MONTH, 'MM'), 'Month') MONTH,

R.NAME REGION, SUM(O.TOT_SALES )

FROM ORDERS O, REGION R

WHERE R.REGION_ID = O.REGION_ID

AND O.MONTH BETWEEN 1 AND 3

GROUP BY ROLLUP (O.YEAR, O.MONTH, R.NAME)
They also have the following SQL which apparently is supposed to produce a
partial ROLLUP. It does not work however. I receive ORA-00933: SQL command
not properly ended.

Why is this happening?

Note that the only difference is that O.YEAR is now outside the ROLLUP
SELECT O.YEAR, TO_CHAR(TO_DATE (O.MONTH, 'MM'), 'Month') MONTH,

R.NAME REGION, SUM(O.TOT_SALES )

FROM ORDERS O, REGION R

WHERE R.REGION_ID = O.REGION_ID

AND O.MONTH BETWEEN 1 AND 3

GROUP BY O.YEAR, O.MONTH ROLLUP (R.NAME)

I spot a , missing between O.MONTH and rollup

Apart from that you really need to include your version in every post.
This is an area which has been improved several times, so you might
just be using the newest syntax against an older version of the
database (or set your compatible parameter incorrectly)

That was it.

Thanks for the tip on the version. I'll remember that for next time.

This was Oracle 9.2

MS has been nice enough to add the Cube and Rollup operators so I can have totals with my results. But out of shear meanness they won't let me use them unless I use a Group By clause in my select. I have a proc with 25 fields, and have no desire to Group By anything- when a certain field changes, I just want a row with the total of that field. Is this possible?

I found this great rollup query example that uses grouping and sub totals. Would it be possible to expand on this and include a group within a group and subtotal each group? For example, parent product then child product? Help appreciated. Thanks. Frank SQL: SELECT CASE WHEN (Grouping(CategoryName)=1) THEN 'MainTotal'

Hello, Using rollup I want to count the number of rows of a table called Table1 which is LEFT JOINED with a table called Table2. The problem is that we can have more than 1 rows in Table2 that matched 1 row in Table1. As a consequence the count of rows in table1 is bigger than the real number of rows contained in table1. For example:

When I use "With rollup," I am getting totals on columns which are numeric, however, non-numeric columns are copying down to the rollup column (i.e. the last column's non-numeric columns are being duplicated on the rollup column). For example. if I order by date with rollup and, I am also outputting emplyee, and some numeric value , at the rollup row, the totals appear, that date, of course, properly appears, but the employee name from...

I installed the SQL Server 2005 SP2 update 2 rollup on my 64-bit server and the performance has tanked! I installed rollup 3 on some of them, but that did not seem to help. I thought it was just a linked server performance issue, but my optimization started running today on one of the "update 2" instances and so far it's been running about 10 hours longer than it normally

Hello folks, I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
