SOQL where & negative numbers
I am trying to write a query, using SOQL which locates a double value which is less than zero.
I can store a negative number, query the record by ID and get the negative number back, but in SOQL i can't specify this in a where clause.
so, using sforce explorer:
Select lat__c, lon__c from Account where lat__c > 37.36033397019124 and lat__c < 37.426343057829385 and lon__c > -121.97999954223633
and lon__c < -121.84335708618164
generates an error MALFORMED QUERY
unexpected char: "-"
if i try to escape the minus sign i get unexpected char "\"
i'm sure this is somewhere in the doc, but i couldn't find it on first pass search.
thanks
