?Why not CREATE an intermediate SQL VIEW or TABLE with V0 and V5 and then use the resulting VIEW or TABLE as input to a second query that computes the diff? Or use R?
First query: CREATE TABLE newtable AS SELECT ? max(case Stim when 'V0' then Resp else null end) V0, max(case Stim when 'V5' then Resp else null end) V5; or CREATE VIEW newview AS SELECT... ; Second query: SELECT SerialNumber, V5, V0, (V5-V0) AS Vdiff FROM newtable; Hope this helps. Alternatively, R has transpose function, crosstabs and a good package for going back and forth from tables to R dataframes.
