Use the CURDATE current(date), then something like
TODATE curdate - 15 days
Then convert to alpha TOALPHA CHAR(TODATE) then parse from there (it looks like this on our system) 04/15/09. then you can pull the month and year out and compare just the month and year

Hope this helps

Subject: Month-end queries

At the end of every month, I change the record selection date range in 15 or so queries to reflect the current month in order to get month-end totals. Is there a way to automate this? Of course, the files to be queried may be different so the date fields will not always be the same.
