Geoff, That would only give me one sum. I need all of the sums for a particular country. SELECT I.DIVISION, I.COUNTRY, SUM(I.AMOUNT WHERE I.W = "1"), SUM(I.AMOUNT WHERE I.W = "2"), SUM(I.AMOUNT WHERE I.W = "3"),SUM(I.AMOUNT WHERE I.W = "4") FROM INPUT I ...which is the more logical way of saying it. I know the above code is not correct, but you could do this xbase style using memory variables.
