I can't see how CASE works ?? Manual is fairly breif on the subject. The SQL below has some kind of snag. Is this getting too hairy to use CASE within a sum expression ?? Any thoughts or comments would be appreciated. SELECT Sum(DebtorTrans.OvAmount + DebtorTrans.OvGST + DebtorTrans.OvFreight - DebtorTrans.OvDiscount - DebtorTrans.Alloc) AS Balance, Sum( CASE WHEN (TO_DAYS(Now()) - TO_DAYS(DebtorTrans.TranDate)) >= 10 THEN DebtorTrans.OvAmount + DebtorTrans.OvGST + DebtorTrans.OvFreight - DebtorTrans.OvDiscount - DebtorTrans.Alloc ELSE 0 END) AS 10DaysOld, FROM DebtorTrans WHERE DebtorTrans.DebtorNo = 'CARLYL' MySQL said: You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'WHEN (TO_DAYS(Now()) - TO_DAYS(DebtorTrans.TranDate)) >= 10 THEN DebtorTrans.Ov' at line 2 TIA Phil Daintree --------------------------------------------------------------------- Before posting, please check: http://www.mysql.com/manual.php (the manual) http://lists.mysql.com/ (the list archive) To request this thread, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To unsubscribe, e-mail <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Trouble unsubscribing?
