Need some help with a query

Hello,
I am fairly new to SQL, so any help here would be appreciated

Quote:

---

SELECT SUM(ABC - XYZ) AS T1
FROM TBL1
WHERE COND = 'Y'

---

Now here is what I need to happen -
ABC must be selected based on the condition COND = 'Y'
AND
XYZ must be selected based on the condition COND <> 'Y'

Just to reiterate - I am new to SQL, so if there is any inbuilt feature that already exists that can help me with this problem, please point me in the right direction so I can do some research on it.

Thank you.

You have to use TBL2 twice in FROM clause

SELECT SUM(T1.ABC - T2.XYZ) AS T1
FROM TBL1 as T1
JOIN TBL1 as T2
ON T1.x1 = T2.x1
WHERE T1.COND = 'Y'
AND T2.COND <> 'Y'

Mixter try this out...

SELECT SUM(decode(COND,'Y',abc,0)) - SUM(decode(COND,'Y',0,XYZ)) AS T1
FROM TBL1

Let me know if incorrect.
