MySQL (well, actually MariaDB via HeidiSQL IDE)
For some reason, I'm having a problem getting a field cast as a varchar in
my sql. I'm trying this:
select CAST('test' as varchar(255));
...and it fails saying I have an error in syntax. I can do this just fine:
select CAST('test' as char(255));
WTF?!?!? On more tests, it seems that I can't get it to cast to VARCHAR
or FLOAT types.
Is there something obvious here that I'm missing?
tia,
