Hi,

"Group by" is what you're looking for..

select type,sum(value) from MyTable group by type

Or for the total only

Select sum(case when type='C' then value when type='W' then -value else
0 end) from MyTable

Hi list,

I would like a little help from you to get the sum value of various
subsets of my table.

My table is like this

id | type | value
1   C       10.00
2   C       15.00
3  W        5.00
4  W        3.00

Where C is credit and w is witdraw.

How do I sum all records with C and subtract with all records with type
W ?

Is it possible ?
Ezequias
