    Nice question, thanks Steve

    Lead and Lag are really handy operators, especially for trend analysis on relational data...

    Easy point. 🙂 Thanks for sharing.

  • Even though I know what LEAD does, I still got it wrong because for some reason I was thinking from "right to left". Moar caffeine!

    LAG and LEAD always trip me up, because I forget what is LAGging and what is LEADing.

    (Really, no pun about a LEADing question yet? I'm slightly disappointed.) 😛

  • Thanks for the question. Of course I can't use these because we are still on 2008.

    I agree. I tend to think of LAG as my row is lagging what I'm looking at ahead, but it's the reverse.
