Hi,
which datatype is needed if I want to display the data 1 / 2010 and want to get query = select min (number) as number ...
Do I have to use a separate number and year?


Regards

Can you elaborate on your requirements? It sounds like you want to format a constant (1 / 2010) but then reference the Min() function.

Yes you should separate them.

is it date value? does 1/2010 represent Jan 2010? then you might have to convert it to date before you apply min() max() if you want sequence based on date
