Re: conversion of an old query /400

You might want to consider something like:

group by a,b,c
with rollup
order by a,b,c

and see if that get you close.

Also investigate grouping sets. Have a look at this article by Michael Sansoterra from the Four Hundred Guru at IT Jungle:

HI I have been unable to duplicate this query.
It uses 5 files it matches from the orderhistory file to customer, and
shipping, invoice history and address files.
OHENT# EQ ADENT#

OHORD# EQ IDORD#
OHENT# EQ ACENT#

has some record selects and sorting, no problems so far. Does totals on qty
shipped and $shipped.

Does break levels on 9 fields. this is the part I cannot translate. then
puts the data to a temp file.

I am not getting the same number of records no matter what. am sure the
issue is how to code this Break in SQL.
