Steve,

Thanks a great deal for the time you took to explain the solution to
the problem.
I will use this knowledge in the future.  I know about using the
parens in math but it never hit me to apply them to the sql
statements.  I will go play with this and I am sure I will be able to
get what I want now.  Again thanks a bunch.
