Our DB girl created that in the access query designer. I find it hard to read in all honesty. I don't mess with too many of the queries since I am the front end web guy.
Main Topics
Browse All TopicsWe are porting some queries out of our Access front end into a web front end. For some reason the following query works fine in Access but gives me an "ORA-00907:Missing Right Parenthesis" error in my web front end.
I can't find where there is a missing parenthesis.
Here is the query:
SELECT DISTINCT assembly_build.ASSEMBLY_NO
FROM (ref_desig RIGHT JOIN (Master_Parts INNER JOIN (locations INNER JOIN ((assembly_build LEFT JOIN Contract_Info ON assembly_build.CONTRACT_ID
Can anyone help?

you should start be removing ALL the unnecessary brackets (I assume you "learned" that by previously using MS Access, right?).
then, ensure you do not mix up LEFT and RIGHT joins in the same query, that will only give (you) troubles.
finally, make the query readable by using short table alias names.
