Kumar,



<<select sum(sum(amount*decode(type,'S',1,'R',-1,1))) from order group
by


amount,type;>>



Thank you very much for your suggestion.
I'm not sure why I would want to use the 'group by' sub-clause, when I
just want the total sum?


I like the suggestion, thought. It looks fast.



Best regards


Henrik
