    Forum acting up again.

    Have trouble posting answers (Quick reply, reply with quote).
    Forum claims "reply is too short" (as in empty)
    Doesn't matter if Quick reply or with Advanced

    EDIT: Found it
    It's the Word "C ASE" (note the blank between C and A)
    Forum rejects the post if i remove the blank in that word

    We/I had the same thing some months ago

    Re: Forum acting up again.

    What about select case statements?

    Edit - Hmm, that allowed me to post it. I wonder if it is when SELECT CASE is all capitalized.

    Edit 2 - No, that allowed me to post it too. What about on its own: Case

    Edit 3 - Nope, that's fine for me too. Are you sure it's the word case getting caught?

    Re: Forum acting up again.

    I wonder if it was because of the parenthesis before it: (CASE

    Edit - No, let me try copying/pasting the entire code snippet:
    Code:
    SELECT Ma.Control,
    SUM(CASE WHEN RLS.ReleaseMethod IS NULL THEN 0 ELSE 1 END) AS SumRelease,
    SUM(CASE WHEN RLS.ReleaseMethod IS NOT NULL THEN 0 ELSE 1 END) AS SumReleaseNo  
    FROM xtlbMROrder AS Ma
    LEFT JOIN xtblMROrderSerialNumbers AS RLS ON Ma.Control=RLS.MROrderMasterControl
    GROUP BY Ma.Control
    Edit 2 - No, it let me copy/paste it. Maybe it's because I'm a moderator? But that just seems very odd.

    Re: Forum acting up again.

    The message you have entered is too short. Please lengthen your message to at least 4 characters.

    "C ASE" isn't an English word unless you can use it in a sentence

    The word SELECT is more than 4 characters.... BOOM you're done and have gotten past too short error.

    Chrome.

    Re: Forum acting up again.

    Select case

    Code:
    SELECT CASE WHEN ID IS NULL THEN 0 ELSE 1 END FROM MyTable
    EDIT:
    Weird....

    Maybe the Rules here in Forum Feedback are different?
