I have to make a sql statment which compares two days with the same weekday in different years.
It would have to look like this:
Amount on the 5-th January 2009 (first monday of the year 2009) compared to 7-th January 2008 (first monday of the year 2008), and so on (2009-01-12 - 2nd monday 2009 vs. 2009-01-14 - 2nd monday 2008).
Day of this year would have to be a parameter in query, and day of last year should be taken automatically.

I hope there is someone to help me.

Yes, sorry, I forgot to post it
Here it is......

Sales headers table consists of four columns Shop, date, quantity and value of merchandise
I need to compare value of merchandise and quantity between two dates which are in the same table.

For example results i expect to get would be:
Sold quantity on 2009-01-05 (Monday) = 550 pcs
Sold quantity on 2008-01-07 (Monday) = 400 pcs
------------------------------------------------
Sales incresement on 2009-01-05 (Monday) = 150 pcs
