Where is my error?

In the e-commerce database there's a customer_addresses table with the following columns: id, nickname, street, city, state, zip, user_id.

Select all the columns that are to do with the address. For example, all columns except id, nickname and user_id.

Bummer! You should try writing a SELECT query. // What TeamTreehouse wrote.

> SELECT street, city, state, zip FROM customer_addresses;

Offhand, this looks like it should work.

Can you provide a link to the challenge page?

Also, what's this part? It doesn't look like it belongs to either the response or the query:

// What TeamTreehouse wrote.

In an ecommerce database there's a addresses table. There is an id, nickname, street, city, state, zip, country and user_id columns. Concatenate the street, city, state, zip and country in the following format. Street, City, State Zip. Country e.g. 34 NE 12 st, Portland, OR 97129. USA. Alias the concatenated string as address.

If that is your question, you are missing the rest of the query :)

I added the // to add a comment to show what Team Treehouse wrote in response to my entry. SQL may not use comments like this. I copied the question from Team Treehouse completely.

You would not believe this, but I put in the exact same answer as before and this time it passes as correct.

I was going to copy the link, but now it is unnecessary. Thank you both for your assistance.

If you desire to use comments in SQL put 3 --- instead of two // to comment. As long as the table columns in that table match, the query would perform flawless without returning any error.
