Session altered.

TRUNC(SYSDATE)          TRUNC(SYSDATE)+1-1/24/6

Hi radoulov,

I think this will work for me. But instead of today's date, I want the date to be yesterday's date. In this case, instead of June 10... it should be June 09, 2011.


Thanks so much mate!

Hi radoulov,


It's giving me an error as shown below.

Code:
SQL> select value,count(*) as totalcount from pmowner.pinpebasev where availableat between trunc(sysdate) - 1, trunc(sysdate)  - 1/24/60/60 group by value;
select value,count(*) as totalcount from pmowner.pinpebasev where availableat between trunc(sysdate) - 1, trunc(sysdate)  - 1/24/60/60 group by value
                                                                                                          *
ERROR at line 1:

It should be:


Code:
select 
  value,
  count(*) as totalcount 
from 
  pmowner.pinpebasev 
where 
  availableat 
between 
  trunc(sysdate) - 1 
and
  trunc(sysdate) - 1/24/60/60 
group by 
  value;

This User Gave Thanks to radoulov For This Post:
