Raj,
           How do you define week number? If a month starts in the middle
of
the week, is that week #1 or must it be the first full week?
           If the format mask 'W' is adequate, use


  1  select sysdate, to_char(sysdate, 'W'),
  2         '01-DEC-02', to_char(to_date('01-DEC-02'), 'W'),
  3         '30-NOV-02', to_char(to_date('30-NOV-02'), 'W')
  4* from dual
SQL> /

SYSDATE   T '01-DEC-0 T '30-NOV-0 T
--------- - --------- - --------- -
19-DEC-02 3 01-DEC-02 1 30-NOV-02 5

Hey Folks,

Looking for the simplest of queries to find the week number, given a date.
For example, 19th December 2002 falls in the 3rd week, whereas 19th
November, 2002, falls in the 4th week.

Thanks
Raj
