Hi,
  Thanks a lot! Ok, so let me get this straight... If I have a count(), min(), max, avg() on the projection list, then I can use it with group by and the aggregate will be applied on EACH GROUP? Also, is ORDER BY always applied last(on the final result set).

Also, if I have a HAVING clause, will it too be applied on each GROUP?

If so, then can I always emulate HAVING by using subqueries, by projecting the fields after the HAVING keyword, and putting the condition after the HAVING keyword in the WHERE of the outher select?
