Not sure what showcase is. But in sql you could do


With cte as (
Select a.*,
Case when dec(substring(digits(mydate), 5, 2),2,0) >= 10 then dec(substring(digits(mydate), 1, 4), 4, 0) + 1
Else dec(substring(digits(mydate), 1, 4), 4, 0)
END as MYYEAR
FROM MYFILE A
)
Select MYYEAR, ... from cte group by MYYEAR

Anyone know how I would do this from Showcase:

GROUP BY
CASE
WHEN MONTH ( DATE ( MYDATE, YYYYMMDD ) ) >= 10 THEN YEAR ( DATE (
MYDATE, YYYYMMDD ) ) + 1
ELSE YEAR ( DATE ( MYDATE, YYYYMMDD ) )
END

in standard SQL? MYDATE is an 8.0 numeric field containing a date like 20110916.

Thanks!
