Lab 7 will introduce the concept of database views. This lab
may be completed using either DeVry’sOmnymbus EDUPE-
APP lab environment, or a local copy of the MySQL
database running on your own computer using the OM
database tables. The lab will utilize a set of tables that are
represented by the ERD (OM_ERD.docx) and are created
and populated by the script file (create_OM_db.sql). Follow
the instructions in the file CreateOMTables.docx to create
your database, tables, and data.
A few IMPORTANT things to note if using EDUPE MySQL:
**There can be NO SPACES in alias names given to a
column. For example:
Select unit_price as “Retail Price “ from items; –this does
NOT work in EDUPE MySQL.
Any of the following WILL WORK:
Select unit_price as “RetailPrice” from items;
Select unit_price as “Retail_Price” from items;
Select unit_price as Retail_Price from items;
Select unit_price as RetailPrice from items;
**Any calculated fields MUST be given an alias (and note
above NO SPACES in alias). For example:
select unit_price * 2 from items; –this does NOT work in
EDUPE MySQL
