Its been a few weeks since I last posted, and its been a over a week since I was even at work....actually I kind of missed a lot of you :) Trying to get some rest and recoup time in a hospital bed just does not seem to ever work.

Alas, I am back, working on another stupid SQL problem. If someone could point me in the right direction on this I would appreciate it.

I need to extract a sum of our line items for two separate date ranges, IE: select sum(ilneprice) as current from speclf where ilninvdate >'02/01/2005' and ilninvdate <='10/31/2005'

That works just fine, but I also need to extract a sum for the same field (ilneprice) for a different date range....is it possible to do this without having to run the query two separate times? Because I also need to extract some other information and group it by location codes and item numbers....

Any help would be appreciated.
