Hello,

I have the following query/result:

auction=# select max(b.lot) as quantity,max(b.price) as price,p.login from bid b, 
person p where b.auction_id = 84 and p.id = b.person_id group by p.login order by 
max(price);
 quantity | price |   login   
----------+-------+-----------
        1 |  5000 | papy
       12 |  5750 | cunctator
        8 |  6000 | vindex
(3 rows)

Now I would like to sum() all results from the quantity column and
return it with one SELECT statement. Is that possible?

I am trying:

auction=# select sum(b.lot) from bid b, person p where b.auction_id = 84 and p.id = 
b.person_id ;
 sum 
-----
  52
(1 row)

But this is wrong because it sums all quantities. I don't know how to
apply a valid WHERE clause in that case.

Thanks in advance for any help, cheers,
