If you have a field in the data that keeps track of when it was inserted then you could always add a line in the where to check for a 30 minute difference. Something like :
where sysdate-time_field <= 30/1440 This should get you all data 30 minutes or less old. -----Original Message----- Sent: Thursday, January 24, 2002 12:55 PM To: Multiple recipients of list ORACLE-L I am not sure how to ask this or if it is even possible. I have a stored procedure that runs every five minutes and writes the data to a table. I want to query every thirty minutes and group the rows from the last half our. would I used date difference?
