Hi, ROLLUP is similar to break/compute of sql*plus. However it hasn't the same funcionality. With CUBE you receive the information of ROLLUP and the totals or grouping expresions of each field you include: SQL> r 1 select deptno,job,sum(sal) 2 from emp 3* group by cube(deptno,job) DEPTNO JOB SUM(SAL) ---------- --------- ---------- 10 CLERK 1300 10 MANAGER 2450 10 PRESIDENT 5000 10 8750 20 ANALYST 6000 20 CLERK 1900 20 MANAGER 2975 20 10875 30 CLERK 950 30 MANAGER 2850 30 SALESMAN 5600 30 9400 ANALYST 6000 CLERK 4150 MANAGER 8275 PRESIDENT 5000 SALESMAN 5600 29025 18 rows selected. > -----Mensaje original----- > De: [EMAIL PROTECTED] [SMTP:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Enviado el: jueves 1 de febrero de 2001 19:01 > Para: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L > Asunto: CUBES > > > > > > Hi, > Could someone please give me an example for cube.
