Question

The following query yields 6 results:

SELECT ATTACHMENT_ID,
       /* Somme other columns */
       THUMBNAIL_EXIST,
       CASE isnull ((SELECT TOP 1 EMAIL_ID
                     FROM   EMAILS_ATTACHMENTS
                     WHERE  ATTACHMENT_ID = vwFILES_ATTACHMENTS.ATTACHMENT_ID), '00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000')
         WHEN '00000000-0000-0000-0000-000000000000' THEN '0'
         ELSE '1'
       END AS SENT_ATTACHMENT,
       CASE File_ext
         WHEN '.pdf' THEN 'true'
         ELSE 'false'
       END AS 'enablecheck',
       CASE VISIBLE_TO_CLIENT
         WHEN '1' THEN '/FACTS/App_Themes/SugarClassic/images/check_inline.gif'
         ELSE '/FACTS/App_Themes/SugarClassic/images/close_inline.gif'
       END AS 'VISIBLE_TO_CLIENT_PATH'
FROM   vwFILES_ATTACHMENTS
WHERE  ( 1 = 1 )
       AND ( PARENT_TYPE = 'Files' )
       AND ( PARENT_ID = '55e52006-ce85-4781-b6f9-00b68c04d62f' )
       AND ( DELETED = 0 )
ORDER  BY DATE_ENTERED DESC 

I modified the DELETED column on one row changing it from False to True. When I try to search for DELETED = 1 instead of DELETED = 0, the search yields no results.

Why is the one row that I changed not showing up? I only get 5 results when I run my DELETED = 0 query (above). The 6th result is not retrieved until I search specifically for it’s ATTACHMENT_ID.

Thanks for your help.

It’s hard to determine what’s going on with your situation given the post and the comments. I would try something like this to determine your Deleted column values:

SELECT DELETED, COUNT(*)
FROM vwFILES_ATTACHMENTS
GROUP BY DELETED

If that is returning you the correct results, then as dumb as it sounds, assuming Deleted = 1 does not work, try something like:

SELECT * 
FROM vwFILES_ATTACHMENTS
WHERE Deleted <> 0

If either = 1 or <> 0 work and return the correct row, then chances are @Joel was correct with his assumptions that other constraints in your WHERE clause are causing it not to return. If = 1 or <> 0 do not work, then I’m clueless.

Good luck.
