Re: An SQL question... -- RPG400-L

After much fooling around, I believe this is the only feasible SQL 
approach.  I've played with several kinds of queries, and your suggestion 
of breaking the problem down into multiple steps makes the most sense.  If 
the dates weren't separated into subcomponents, I think a single UPDATE 
could do it fairly easily as mentioned in one of the other posts.

Many thanks to all who responded.
