Hi,SELECT SUM(DECODE(q1_shares, 0, 1, 0)) as q1,
Please look at this query. notice that most of the criteria is the
same, except for 1 line. I need to get the count for 10 items. Is
there a better way to do this so I do not have to repeat the criteria
for each item I want to return?
I realize that one line of the criteria is different, but I am hoping
to not have to repeat the other criteria.....
SELECT a.q1, b.q2
FROM (SELECT count(*) q1
FROM vinst vi, vhold vh, master_table mt, stock_data sd, prices
p
WHERE vi.inst_num = vh.inst_num
AND vh.ticker = mt.ticker
AND mt.m_ticker = sd.m_ticker
AND mt.m_ticker = p.m_ticker
AND q1_shares = 0) a,
(SELECT count(*) q2
FROM vinst vi, vhold vh, master_table mt, stock_data sd, prices
p
WHERE vi.inst_num = vh.inst_num
AND vh.ticker = mt.ticker
AND mt.m_ticker = sd.m_ticker
AND mt.m_ticker = p.m_ticker
AND q0_shares = 0) b;
Thank you much,
John
SUM(DECODE(q0_shares, 0, 1, 0)) as q2
FROM vinst vi, vhold vh, master_table mt, stock_data sd, prices p
WHERE vi.inst_num = vh.inst_num
AND vh.ticker = mt.ticker
AND mt.m_ticker = sd.m_ticker
AND mt.m_ticker = p.m_ticker;
hth,

Your solution is interesting. In fact, I like it. Is this possible
also if I need to use a > or <?
The actual results they are looking for is:
-- A count of the number of tickers that have Q1_SHARES = 0
-- A count of the number of tickers that have Q0_SHARES = 0
-- A count of the number of tickers that have Q1_SHARES > Q0_SHARES
-- A count of the number of tickers that have Q1_SHARES < Q0_SHARES
-- A count of the number of tickers that have Q1_SHARES = Q0_SHARES
