Hi.

This seems to be a relatively simple single SELECT statement.

Please use DATEPART to convert billed_date into a year with yyyy, and a second datepart to get the month with mm.

Then group your query the way you need to summarize the data, using SUM to add up values.

Thanks

John.

Assuming this is still true: billed_date datetime

right('0' + cast(month(billed_date) as varchar(2)),2) + '-' + cast(year(billed_date) as varchar(4))

Now, I have a suggestion. You should get to know Books Online. In SSMS press Shift-F1. There is a lot of good information in there and you don't have to rely on waiting for volunteers to answer all your questions. If something doesn't make sense there, come ask questions here.

Assuming this is still true: billed_date datetime
right('0' + cast(month(billed_date) as varchar(2)),2) + '-' + cast(year(billed_date) as varchar(4))

... or...

SELECT RIGHT(CONVERT(CHAR(10),GETDATE(),105),7)

RBAR is pronounced "ree-bar" and is a "Modenism" for Row-By-Agonizing-Row.
First step towards the paradigm shift of writing Set Based code:
________Stop thinking about what you want to do to a ROW... think, instead, of what you want to do to a COLUMN.

Change is inevitable... Change for the better is not.
